the Girl Talk Bootleg Archive :: 10 bootlegs and counting!

October 19th, 2009 by Matt

For about a year or so around Night Ripper‘s release, I wasn’t really into Girl Talk. Then when I saw him play live at the Pitchfork festival I was completely won over. Ever since then I’ve tried to collect all the Girl Talk bootlegs I can. I’d say I’ve probably listened to the recording of Bonnaroo 2007 set more times than I’ve heard any of his albums.

Now I’ve put together all the bootlegs I have in one place. I’m constantly emailed by people who want me to put bootlegs back up for download, so hopefully this will make everyone as happy as can be.

If you’ve got any bootlegs that I don’t have, please upload them to Rapidshare and send ‘em my way!

    Using a spray bottle, spray cold water onto your rug. The Calibre 89 was designed to commemorate the company’s 150th anniversary and displays an astounding 24 hands! Some of its features include a thermometer and a star chart. Diverse geographic, climatic, and personal patterns pervade all around the country.

    This is amazing. Lost all my Girl Talk music, thought it was gonna take me forever to get again. But all my favorites are right here including Murders Seattle! I definitely recommend the site’s author recommendation of Night Ripper album also!

    Was never really a fan of Girl Talk until I saw him live, as I suspect a lot of other people had a similar experience. I was rolling balls at Treasure Island, a little Island just outside of San Francisco that has an awesome 2 day festival every year with great acts, saturday electronic, and sunday indie and rock. Anyways, as I was saying, rolling balls at Treasure Island, then Girl Talk hits the stage, with San Francisco’s city-scape as the background, and it blew my already insanely high mind. He really makes it a visual experience, and everyone there is a part of it!

    I gained even more respect for him after watching his special on Hulu’s “A day in the life,” which, if you can watch (only 20-30min), is definitely worth it. Follows him around from waking up, to playing a festival, to hitting the sack for the night. A great look at what happens behind the scenes, and what actually goes into creating a live Girl Talk set, which is more involved than most would think, even your educated and veteran concert goers and music enthusiasts.

    Anyways, thanks for all this. Your nation is thankful for your service and contribution to the progress of its music sharing initiative, and is forever in your debt.

    I really wish I could find some bootlegs from the secret diary era. I love his more fluid mash-up work as well, but I’ve always had a soft spot for noise and like to hear how it translated to a show.
