Overview
For this EP Lazlo Bane chose less charted songs than for the previous covers instalment. Most of the songs on Guilty Pleasures were Top 10 hits in the Billboard Hot 100 US music chart, while only three songs covered on Guilty Pleasures the 80's originally entered the Top 10. The song "Sherlock Holmes", originally by Sparks, hadn't been released as a single at all.
Lyle Workman, the guitarist for Bourgeois Tagg and co-writer of the song "I Don't Mind At All", has previously collaborated with Lazlo Bane on their first album 11 Transistor.
It is unknown whether Volume 2 will follow soon, but CD Baby solicits requests for songs' selections.
