Free 12-Song Girl Talk Album – All Day

Frugal Bon Vivant — Thu, 18 Nov 2010 14:00:50 +0000

Illegal-art.net has Girl Talk’s All Day album for free. If you’re a Girl Talk fan, clap hands! Note: “Girl Talk” released his album on Illegal-Art.net, so it’s not “illegal” ;) I love hearing pieces of Beastie Boys & ELO “Mr Blue Sky” mixed in. Fun!

Enjoy, with coffee?
