The best Beck album to start with is probably Odelay. It's a fairly accessible album with some really fantastic tunes, it'll give you a great idea of what Beck's all about. He's made some really different sounding albums over the years, his early lo-fi blues stuff on Golden Feelings is a bit more inaccessible, while he even ventured into camp pop music on Midnite Vultures. Sea Change is a superb album for wallowing in sorrow, his most mellow and depressing album.

My personal Beck top 5:

1. Sea Change
2. Odelay
3. Modern Guilt
4. Mutations
5. Guero
