Cheers!

I'd say you really need to get Bad Moon Rising next to get a feel where they were coming from when they did the three albums you have. Plus, it's a fucking genius landmark album (my favorite record - period). Then get the other early albums Confusion is Sex and the self-titled ep, which are also must haves.

Then going chronological with the major label stuff (as well as the SYRs which shouldn't be missed) makes sense, keeping in mind that if you don't like a particular album as much they may well have done something noticeably different afterwards.
