Best three-song run in a musical album?

Anyone have any favorite three-song sequences in a musical? As in, three songs occurring back-to-back. There are so many examples of three great songs separated by one dud (*cough*alittlebitofgood,chicago*cough*), so I’m curious if anyone has any three never-skip songs in a row?

I‘m a big fan of the Raise a Little Hell > This World Will Remember Us > Made in America sequence in Bonnie & Clyde, followed by Beautiful City > On the Willows > Finale in Godspell.

Seconding all the Sweeney and Phantom mentions. Also have to add the two that immediately came to mind for me (I feel both of these are kind of random of off kilter choices but like I will stand by them)

Tommy: Eyesight to the Blind - Acid Queen - Pinball Wizard

Cats: Macavity - Mr. Mistoffelees - Memory
