Best 3 Album Run

[Sara]

Which artists have had a run of three consecutive, original albums which, for you, represent a flawless and definitive body of work?

Nominate three selections, and then I'll do a vote on the same format as Album Of The Year.

As these things can drag on, nominations by midnight on Tuesday 25th, please, and then we'll conclude voting by Tuesday 1st August.

I'll kick off with some less obvious ones, to leave plenty of scope for others:

Talk Talk -
Colour of Spring
Spirit of Eden
Laughing Stock

Tom Waits -
Swordfishtrombones
Rain Dogs
Frank's Wild Years

The Cure -
17 Seconds
Faith
Pornography
