I started with The Runner's Four, though that's 20 songs long. I haven't heard Apple O yet, so maybe it's a good choice.

Go with the one that's cheapest, I guess:

Apple O, The Runner's Four, Friend Opportunity. I would recommend Friend Opportunity after all their other efforts, except for Offend Maggie. Reason being is that Friend Opportunity just isn't as funky.

If you're going to listen to the Runner's Four, maybe preview the following tracks: O'Malley Former Underdog, Twin Killers, Running Thoughts, Spirit Ditties of No Tone (this is a especially awesome one) and Rrrrrrright.
