First three on Abby Holliday’s album “Crack A Smile, C’mon Stay Awhile” or the “Drunk”-> “So Sick of Dreaming” -> “The Kill” run on Maggie Rogers’ “Don’t Forget Me”
Could also make a case for:
* Tracks 1-3 on Dar Williams's Mortal City (As Cool as I Am, February, Iowa)
* Tracks 7-9 on Billy Joel's River of Dreams (Lullabye, River of Dreams, 2000 Years)
* Tracks 7-9 on Mozart's Requiem, if that's eligible for consideration 🤣 (Confutatis, Lacrimosa, Domine Jesu)
Either the first three songs off of The Sunset Tree by The Mountain Goats (You or Your Memory, Broom People, This Year) or the last three songs off MUNA’s self-titled (Anything But Me, Loose Garment, Shooting Star)
i'm cheating with four but this is pretty unparalleled for me - The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner was *so* underappreciated in 1999 (i was oblivious at the the time too)
