favourite 3 consecutive songs?

Infinite Dreams (10/10)
Can I Play With Madness (10/10)
The Evil That Men Do (10/10)

Honorable mention:

The Longest Day (10/10)
Out Of The Shadows (10/10)
The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg (9/10)
 
This is tough, but I think I'll go with "Back In The Village" / "Powerslave" / "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" from Powerslave.
 
As of today,

1. The Prisoner - 22 Acacia Avenue - The Number of the Beast
2. Aces High - 2 Minutes to Midnight - Losfer Words
3. Phantom of the Opera - Transylvania - Strangz World
4. Revelations - Flight of Icarus - Die With Your Boots On
5. The Wicker Man - Ghost of the Navigator - Brave New World
 
1. FTGGOG-Lord of Light-The Legacy
2. Benjamin Breeg-FTGGOG-Lord of Light
3. GOTN-Brave New World-Blood Brothers
 
Hm...

Wicker Man/Ghost of the Navigator/Brave New World (/Blood Brothers/The Mercenary/Dream of Mirrors/the rest)
Out of the Shadows/Ben Breeg/FTGGOG
Killers/Prodigal Son/Purgatory

Easier than I thought.
 
Would have to be Phantom Of The Opera, Translyvania and Strange World off the debut for me
Agree.
But it's really tough.
Innocent Exile / Killers / Prodigal Son is close, also Wrathchild / Murders / Another Life, and
sorry buddy
The Evil That Men Do / Seventh Son / Prophecy.
 
If we look closely there are so many amazing trios throughout maiden discography it's hard to pick:
  • The Ides Of March, Wrathchild, Murders In The Rue Morgue
  • Where Eagles Dare, Revelations, Flight Of Icarus
  • Aces High, 2 Minutes, Losfer Words
  • Back In The Village, Powerslave, Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
  • Caught Somewhere In Time, Wasted Years, Sea Of Madness
  • Sea Of Madness, Heaven Can Wait, Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner
  • Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son, The Prophecy, The Clairvoyant
  • Sign Of The Cross, Lord Of The Flies, Man On The Edge
  • Rainmaker, No More Lies, Montsegur
  • The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg, For The Greater Good Of God, Lord Of Light
  • The Red And The Black, When The River Runs Deep, The Book Of Souls

But after pondering a lot I think I'll have to go with the first 3 songs out of SSOASS. 3 different kinds of tunes all of them top notch in its own category. So I think my pick is:

  • Moonchild, Infinite Dreams, Can I Play With Madness
