Coincidentally I listened to one of their really old albums for the first time a few weeks ago, and was struck by how some of the songs probably wouldn't be called Heavy Metal now.
I mean, I'm sure they were considered Heavy Metal at the time, but they sounded like sort of Psychedelic to me. Or something. Not sure where I'm going with this :-)
Anyway. I am not really a metal fan, but I really enjoyed it. The album may have been Volume 4.

To me they are easy listening. Just plain comfortable.

Just play the studio stuff chronologically. It goes very smoothly. You will drift. Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, etc will do the same. Very soothing.

I am in the middle of doing just that with King Crimson (again).
