Best 3 consecutive album tracks?

The medley on the second half of The Beatles Abbey Road is one of the finest consecutive runs for me, specifically from that bunch I would say the 3 best are

11) Mean Mr Mustard
12) Polythene Pam
13) She Came In Through The Bathroom Window
 
Pulp - Different Class:

3: Common People
4: I Spy
5: Disco 2000

Struggled with this one; lots of "two bona fide classics followed by one, er, less so" even with my favourite/rated albums. But that Pulp trio is pretty difficult to dispute.
 
Boston (self titled)

1. More Than A Feeling
2. Peace of Mind
3. Foreplay/Long Time
4. Rock and Roll Band
5. Smokin'
6. Hitch a Ride
7. Something About You

Any combo of three = win!

3 Live Forever
4 Up In The Sky
5 Columbia

I considered that myself but Up In the Sky doesn't quite cut it. When in the mood for some BIOD drums I'd take Columbia->Supersonic->Bring It On Down over that.

You could make this more interesting by not allowing songs that were released as singles - literally three album-only tracks in a row. In which case my most recent would be:

Third Eye Blind - Third Eye Blind

2. Narcolepsy
3. Semi-Charmed Life
4. Jumper

Although I'd be happy with any three consecutive tracks off that album.

Yes I was vaguely considering some 3eb. I'll have to have a proper think for 3x non-singles tracks.
