I'll preface this by saying I'm only familiar with the band's singles so I can’t accurately comment on the tracks from their extensive album back catalogue. But, if you can, go for it. My three in no particular order are:

Angie
You Can't Always Get What You Want
Honky Tonk Women

Not a fan of Angie but love Can’t Always Get… and Honky Tonk. Gimme Shelter is a belter! And the lyrics and tune for I Can’t Get No (Satisfaction) are brilliant.

The choice is huge, is it not? I'm quite partial to the later funk style of Emotional Rescue and Miss You, both about a million miles from the blues that Brian Jones championed. Fool To Cry is another good ballad - I think Billy Preston plays electric piano on there.
