“Has there ever been a better 4-album run than Juju, A Kiss in the Dreamhouse, Hyaena and Tinderbox?” asks wise old Jed Clampett in his Siouxsie thread. And it got me thinking… has there? I’m no Siouxsie fan (I only know the Greatest Hits) but I was sure there must be. Yet when I went to my iTunes to look I couldn’t find one! Not one! Imagine my surprise! Signor Clampett might be right after all, for all I know.
I found some three-in-a-rows (my usual faves of David Sylvian, Pink Floyd, JAMC) but any chronological, four-in-a-row package of studio albums is always shafted by an album I have reservations about.
I’m sure there’ll be the usual claims for The Beatles, Dylan and Bowie. They’d be, of course, predictable, boring and well wrong. I’ll have to check out that Siouxsie run now. Unless anyone has got any other four-in-a-row suggestions?
