Revelation and Nightwatch are my favorites.

I'd suggest in this order:

1) Future Games
2) Mystery To Me
3) Heroes Are Hard To Find

(or, in other words, in chronological order of release)

But, idealistically, get them all at the same time.

IMO, Mystery To Me is the greatest thing FM has ever done.
If you must start with just one, start with MTM.

I do find some aspects of the mix a bit odd, but otherwise I'm enjoying it.

I liked Penguin a lot. It was the first Pre-Rumours album I listened to. But MTM is still my favorite from that lineup.

There were only five albums from the Bob Welch/Christine McVie-led lineup. It won't break anybody's budget to purchase them all. Although there (surprisingly) seems to be some consensus that Mystery To Me is the best of the lot, all five are very strong albums and include a lot of very good songs. I don't think anyone should pay too much attention to what anyone else says about this group of albums; it's best to hear them all and decide for yourself. I personally enjoy the music from this period in the history of the Mac more than what followed after Bob left the group.
