Best opening 3 tracks on an album

[Questions]

Not as good as Hunky Dory though.

First two great but not sure about Eight line Poem. Strangely enough I downloaded that album from iTunes last night.

Did I mention my new ipad

Does it play your vinyl?

Does it play your vinyl?

Am buying albums for the 4th time in some cases now.

Old Vegster still has his 78s though.
Mind you, there is only so much of George Formby you can listen to.

When you think of albums where EVERY song is great, then the first 3 tracks are a cinch.
For example;

Hendrix - Cry of Love
"Freedom"
"Drifting"
"Ezy Ryder"

Bob Dylan - Bringing it All Back Home
"Subterranean Homesick Blues"
"She Belongs to Me"
"Maggie's Farm"

Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
"Tangled Up in Blue"
"Simple Twist of Fate"
"You're a Big Girl Now"

Wishbone Ash - Pilgrimage
"Vas Dis"
"The Pilgrim"
"Jail Bait"

Supergrass - In it for the Money
"In It for the Money"
"Richard III"
"Tonight"

And the list goes on - I Am Kloot 's/t', Porcupine Tree 'In Absentia', Led Zep 1-4, King Crimson 'Court of'.....
