1990-1995: Aint No Fun (classic verses and an awesome beat)
1996-2000: Still D.R.E.
2001-2005: Put it On Me
2006-2010: Imagine

First ones that came to my head. Probably the most listened to, but too many to name of course.

If you're talking about great beats in the pure sense of the term, I don't see how you can leave off Mind Blowin by The D.O.C. Sure, Dre went on to create more masterful productions (e.g. Real Niggaz Don't Die, G Thang, Cali Love), but you specifically mentioned beats, so I think Mind Blowin's got to be on there

i prefer the remix

Yall know I listen to them dre beats all day and have a collection of every beat the dude has made.... We all feel mostly the same, that his tightest shit is 1995-2002, with his shit from 1991-1994 being G FUNKED and dope as fuck (chronic, mwtc, doggystle, dogg food (respect, lets play house), all eyez on me, etc...) and his era from 2003-current being pretty shaky... Anyhow, I have spent a ton of time bumping all of Dre's finest work and IMO and many others these are the TOP 5 DRE BEATS of all time (not necessarily his most commercial success songs):

1. bitch please (snoop, dre, xzibit, nate)WOW!! This shit is soooo good. The beat makes me want to break my neck everytime i hear it. do yall hear the shit goin on with the drums on this one? this is modern day G Funk with a new age technology touch and something so good that i will never get tired of it! This is Dre's best beat and he threw snoop and nate on it to make it one of the best tracks he's ever been a part of (and there are tons, believe me!)

2. outta control remix (dre, 50, mobb deep)now this is what im talking bout!!! This is Detox shit that if it came out today, people would GO NUTS. This is beautiful music and smooth, classy rap done at its best. 50 is also at his prime for writing hooks at this time so this is a classic ass track!

3. oh (dre, busta, obie)soooo sick!! best keys, best drums, just missing some bass or coulda been even higher.

4. cant c me (dre, 2pac) awesome beat that sounds alot like dre's work on doggystyle (samples same track as whats my name?, soooo bangin!), and 2pac has more emotion on this track than any track ever before (and that says alot!!)

5.
poppin them thangs (dre, scott storch on the keys, g unit)
During that early detox era. Scott storch at his best and a true headnodder and the performers are all great.

Close but no cigar:
Family affair
xxplosive
light speed
Truck Volume
Hennessey and Buddah
U know
jus dippin
