They're crappy quality, but that also means they're pretty small to download. The biggest is about 2.3 Meg (Heartattack and Vine).

They're in chronological order so you can kinda see his progression through the years, but each album varies a whole heap, so the songs are not representative of the whole album.

Oh, people here may be familiar with him from his work on Primus' "Tommy the Cat" as...err...Tommy the Cat.
