Can I add Waka/Jawaka to that run?

This one is really hard. I am personal friends with Glenn Cornick's son and he would absolutely hate me for not covering his dad's tenure.

Jethro Tull
Benefit
Aqualung
Thick As A Brick
Passion Play

That said, they just keep coming:

Minstrel In The Gallery

#GreatAlbumRuns, Massive Attack edition:
Blue Lines
Protection
Mezzanine

Oh man, this was so obvious:

Public Enemy:
Yo! Bum Rush the Show
It Takes A Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back
Fear of a Black Planet

and while we're then and there...

A Tribe Called Quest:
People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm
The Low-End Theory
Midnight Marauders

and

the early Wu-Tang Clan (inc. solo efforts):
Enter the 36 Chambers
Liquid Swords
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx

(probably also Ironman, but I never owned it. Not so much Tikal)

#GreatAlbumRuns

So here's my #Radiohead run:

OK Computer
KidA
Amnesiac

I'd love to include 'A Moon-Shaped Pool' since I think it's as good as anything they've ever done. Alas, there are some very good but uneven albums intervening (or maybe I just need to give 'Hail to the Thief', 'In Rainbows', and 'King of Limbs' more love).

#GreatAlbumRuns

Bauhaus:
In the Flat Field
Mask
The Sky's Gone Out

Love & Rockets:
Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven
Express
Earth, Sun, Moon

(Hot take: I actually prefer the L&R run!! 😁)

@flockofnazguls
One last one for my local band that nearly made it big but just missed

Miracle Legion
- Surprise Surprise
- Me and Mr. Ray
- Drenched

If you haven’t heard them, check them out. It’s really good stuff.

#GreatAlbumRuns

#GreatAlbumRuns
Rubber Soul
Revolver
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
After that it was all over. The White Album, such a disappointment.

@flockofnazguls

I have confirmed that somehow this isn’t on yet

They Might Be Giants
- They Might Be Giants
- Lincoln
- Flood
- Apollo 18

Come to think of it, has McLaughlin ever made a bad record?

#GreatAlbumRuns

One amazing thing about all the suggestions is that they really highlight the immense diversity and sheer quantity of music available to us since the era of recorded music began.

I've been reminded of bands and albums I had either forgotten about or indeed never even heard of!

Here's a probably lesser known run.

Jean-Luc Ponty:

Imaginary Voyage
Enigmatic Ocean
Cosmic Messenger
Live
A Taste For Passion

@flockofnazguls Such an astonishing catalogue to leave behind. Laughing Stock was one of my go-to records during the pandemic.

There's probably a separate thread for acts where their entire run of albums is great - I'd add Fugazi and Boards of Canada to any such list.

#GreatAlbumRuns

The first example that comes to mind for #GreatAlbumRuns is the Verve:

A Storm in Heaven
A Northern Soul
Urban Hymns

Also, another vote from me for:

* Stevie Wonder's absolutely legendary '70s run

* Massive Attack, although I wouldn't stop at their third album, as they've never made a bad one. Their run is an ultramarathon.

* Bjork - from Debut to Homogenic.

This Mortal Coil:
It'll End in Tears
Filigree & Shadow
Blood

Three perfect albums.
