Fav Consecutive Albums by An Artist


There are periods where an artist or a group reach a creative peak and release a series of consecutive albums that are all masterpieces. These are an artists' Golden Age. Just curious, but what do you consider the golden age records of your favorite artists. Must be consecutive and "Greatest Hits" not allowed.

My fav is Stevie Wonder from:

Music of the Mind
Talking Book
Innervision
Forfillingness First Finale
Songs In the Key of Life

Five incredible albums in four years.

@hifijones - Way to dig up a 15 year old thread........ Since you brought it back, I'll offer a couple of good runs that I didn't see previously:

Rush 
2112
A Farewell to Kings
Hemispheres
Permanent Waves
Moving Pictures
Signals

Lucinda Williams
Lucinda Williams S/T
Sweet Old World
Car Wheels on a Gravel Road
Essence
World Without Tears
John Hiatt had a nice run in the late eighties with:

Bring The Family
Stolen Moments
Slow Turning.

He had done some great stuff earlier, and he's done some great stuff since - but those three are the rabbit passing through the snake.
Husker Du. Zen Arcade followed by New Day Rising.

Allmans. Fillmore East then Eat a Peach.

Also agree with the Little Feat and Steely Dan mentions.
