I've heard plenty of their hits but I want to delve deeper into their albums, so thats why I asked the question.

if that's the case, go for Rubber Soul

it's some sort of bridge between the early pop era and the later experimentation

As said by BOY the Red and Blue compilation albums are the best place to start as they cover the Beatles discography pretty well. After that see which songs and period you like best and go from there. If you want to go straight into their albums, then the mid period of "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver" is the best place to start.

I would start with Abbey Road. Fantastic record.

Don't start with the White Album. Too much filler.
