i'd say "barbed wire kisses" as that was the first JAMC album i got..
it gives you a refined idea of what they're all about, plus you get the covers and rare songs that made the b-sides, so the album provides you with additional insight..
next stop will be "psychocandy", "automatic" and "darklands"...
preferably in that order..

have fun, man.. the mary chain is something else..
