Starts out pretty mediocre (second and third songs were free downloads), until Roky Erickson brings the Awesome; quality stays pretty high after that. What are the high and low points of your list?

On the CD swap front, I have received Ahab's--it's a serio-comic independent feature about a handful of complicated misfits living in the middle of a large expanse of very dry country--and George's, I am told, is on the way. Still waiting for Lettuce's CD and Jamelle's downloadable files (an ingenious way to work it); no hurry, but I do want to wait to exchange artist/title info until everybody has had a chance to listen to everybody else's.
