When first thinking of making this thread, I had in mind Boston's debut album "Boston" (which because of the following I regard as the greatest rock album:

1. More Than A Feeling
2. Piece of Mind
3. Foreplay/Longtime

or (off the same album)

3. Hitch a Ride
4. Something About You
5. Let Me Take You Home Tonight

But then, I really had to give Jackson Browne a look (mainly because I regard him as the greatest songwriter), with these songs from his "Very Best" album in 2004:

15. The Load Out
16. Stay
1. Running on Empty


What say you?

Wouldn't have been my first guess

But actually not a bad list.

In the Background

Hard to argue with that Boston three song choice.


I like Modest Mouse- GNFPWLBN
"Bury Me with It"
"Dance Hall"
"Bukowski"


OR

Queens of the Stone Age- Rated R
"Leg of Lamb"
"Auto Pilot"
"Better Living Through Chemistry"


Also worth mentioning:

the Pixies- Doolittle
Dead
Monkey gone to heaven
Mr. Grieves



Tool- Anemia

Stinkfist
Eulogy
H.


The Mars Volta- Deloused in the Comatorium

"Drunkship of Lanterns"
"Eriatarka"
Cicatriz ESP"

I've gotta think Bob Segar has something up there too, but I don't think he has three consecutive on any album.

Heady - awesome list
