After The Gold Rush by Neil Young

His most popular album would probably be the best to start with. ^

Before CubaZed's only contributions were tourneys, he facilitated this roundup of BEA's collective opinion of Neil Young associated albums from the 60s & 70s that should be a great reference for you.

Harvest is definitely the most accessible/a masterpiece, so it's clearly the way to go.

Don't start with on the beach.
