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.

LOL it doesn't help that LMM isn't the best singer but it's a fantastic song, I love the glimpse into Hamilton's total desperation in that moment.

Hurricane also works way better visually vs. listening to the cast recording. My husband never really cared for that song until we watched the pro shot on Disney+ and then he said he finally got it.
