Various Artists - Sean Rowley Presents Guilty Pleasures / Various - 140-Gram Black Vinyl - VINYL LP

In the 17th century, Poland was one of the most dynamic cultural centres in Europe, mainly due to royal patronage and great magnate families. Opera and ballet performances were organized, in many churches organs were built. An important role in the development of Polish musical culture of that period was played by numerous court ensembles, of which the royal one was of course of the highest quality. It was also the long-time Kapellmeister of the court of Wladyslaw IV, Bartlomiej Pekiel, that belonged to the European musical elite. OCTAVA - one of the most interesting Polish vocal groups presents, along with a group of early music specialists invited to perform this work, pieces of this composer, most important for the Polish music of the 17th century. This is the first comprehensive and complete phonographic edition of the works of Bartlomiej Pekiel, which features pieces not yet published, including works found in the Archives of the Wawel Cathedral Chapter.

This new slot began with the playing of Alessi's 'Oh, Lori'. The response was extraordinary - listeners were so keen to share their own guilty pleasures that playing them all required a show of it's 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 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 sub-genre. The Guardian declared a 'Guilty Pleasures' night Inchthe future of clubbingInch. ITV came calling with a demand to make a one-off 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, one-hit wonders and exotic recordings that perfectly soundtracked a sun-kissed '70s U.S. west coast life style, les
