Google Play is giving away the Guardians Of The Galaxy soundtrack, today only

Much like an anthropomorphic raccoon giving away free laser blasts to the guards of a high-tech prison facility, Google Play is giving away free music to fans of Marvel’s latest blockbuster. Now that the Guardians Of The Galaxy soundtrack—subtitled Awesome Mix Vol. 1—is no longer the number one album in the the country, the online portal is making the entire album free for download, today only. (Sorry, international fans of the popular hits from the ’60s and ’70s contained within this compilation—the offer is limited to the United States for now).

It seems the corporate overlords at Marvel (presumably living in the severed head of an ancient God) have decided they’ve wrung all the money they can from this particular piece of marketing synergy. Therefore, the rest of us are now free to enjoy, at no cost, the smooth sounds of Peter Quill’s cassette mix. It includes David Bowie, The Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, and others, but a helpful reminder of the track listing is below, in case your brain merely recalls OOGA-CHAKA-OOGA-OOGA-OOGA-CHAKA, over and over again, endlessly, driving you mad.
