Allman Brothers Band
Idlewild South
At Fillmore East
Eat A Peach
Brothers and Sisters (OK, OK, that's no. 5).

And to be honest, all of the Allman Brother's albums since Seven Turns have been great, especially the live albums.

And one could add

And the Elton John album! That would be 6 stunners in a row Jah Paul.

Absolutely on all counts! What a run for Reg and Bernie.

See above, but also note that 'Echoes' is not an album, but the song title of 'side b' of Meddle.

One could also pick pretty much any 4 album run by J. Geils Band. I'll go with:

Monkey Island
Sanctuary
Love Stinks
Freeze Frame

This run would begin with "Blow Your Face Out" if live albums counted.

Have tix to see J Geils at the end of August for $10. Looking very forward to it!

Yes!...and for those who doubt that Led Zeppelin III belongs in this discussion, I ask you to relishes to it.

4 in a Row for The Black Crowes (Shake Your Money Maker,The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion, Amorica, Three Snakes and One Charm)

Also a bravo to the poster who mentioned The Doors...as well.

Agree with The Stones, Dylan, Beatles, Springsteen (pick ANY 4 on the trot except Working on a Dream!), ACDC. Led Zeppelin, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Beatles (NOT MMT - include Let it Be - a record I actually adore!) but for me the bestest 4 (or actually 6!) on the trot:

Howlin' Wind
Heat Treatment
Stick to Me
Squeezing out Sparks ... and a 5th ...
The Up Escalator .. and a 6th...
Another Grey Area

by Graham Parker and the Rumour

And

Tons of Sobs
Free
Fire and Water
Highway

by Free, best band in the world 68-71 IMHO - and I am a Stones and Springsteen nut!
