    I also prefer Weld, but get both albums. As far as good electric Neil songs, some of my favorites (aside from the 2 you mentioned) are:

    Down By the River
    Cowgirl in the Sand
    Cinnamon Girl
    Ohio
    Like a Hurricane
    Tonights the Night
    Cortez the Killer
    Fuckin Up

    Buy the albums Zuma and Ragged Glory and Mirror Ball if you like Neil's electric side.
    Also get ReAcTor which is not as well known but a good guitar album that includes the classic guitar song Shots.

    there's some really intresting songs on the Reactor record like:
    Southern Pacific
    Shots (!)-this is an epic one right up there w/ Cowgirl In The Sand
    Surfer Joe and Moe The Sleeze

    Ordinary People off of Chrome Dreams II is an 18 minute epic also.
    Big Time off of Broken Arrow is good too.
