Records he had to hide when friends visited his home after school. While those same friends were into Bowie, Slade, Bolan and Roxy, Sean spent his hardearned pocket money on David Cassidys Could It Be Forever. He wasnrsquot into the alternative universe of John Peel or the NME. He thrived on upbeat and sunny Pop songs. ELO trumped The Sex Pistols in his world uncanny given Paul Cooke from the Pistols later blagged a copy of the original Guilty Pleasures compilation, saying, ldquoWe always secretly loved these songs.This new slot began with the playing of Alessis Oh, Lori. The response was extraordinary listeners were so keen to share their own guilty pleasures that playing them all required a show of its own. Demand dictated that Sean should compile a Guilty Pleasures album the first of two titles followed in 2004 all 22 of the tracks on that original release are included on both of our new formats.The phrase guilty pleasures moved into the public domain. National newspapers devoted columns to it, music magazines gave over numerous pages to discuss the best songs in this new subgenre.

ITV came calling with a demand to make a oneoff Saturday TV show.Fast forward twenty years and Sean has partnered with Demon to make Guilty Pleasures available and expanded the guilt over four themed CDs adding deep cuts, onehit wonders and exotic recordings that perfectly soundtracked a sunkissed 70s U.S. west coast life style, less so in 70s Britain.Welcome to a 70s Pop odyssey. Welcome to a collection of records that were swept under the carpet of cool. Welcome back, Guilty Pleasures.
