    Tubular Bells 1973
    Hergest Ridge 1974
    Ommadawn 1975

    Will even add a fourth with Incantations 1978, Ignoring Boxed in 1976 as it was a compilation of the other three re-mixed.

    Mike Oldfield. Never quite hit those same heights again.

    It's super hard to chose one favourite, but I'd probably go with XTC. In my opinion a band that are hugely underrated. The fact that they stopped touring in 1982 didn't help, they were also from Swindon and really uncool too.

    Drums and Wires -1979
    Black Sea - 1980
    English Settlement - 1982

    I believe the reason XTC stopped touring was that Andy Partridge suffered from stage fright, love XTC.

    Anyway:-

    I love XTC, but slightly struggling to find 3 in a row I really like.

    Maybe
    Oranges and Lemons
    Nonsuch
    Apple Venus Vol 1

    or
    Black Sea
    English Settlement
    Mummer

    or if you include The Dukes of Stratosphear
    25 O'Clock
    Skylarking
    Psonic Sunspot
