From the band that brought you the Scrubs theme song, Superman, comes the most awesomest, spanktacular event of the new millennium: Guilty Pleasures. In early 2007, Lazlo Bane embarked on a mission to record 20 amazing songs from the 70’s. You don’t know why you love them, you may not be sure who wrote them, but you’re damn sure glad Lazlo Bane covered them.
I give it 10 stars
Let’s get the party started. How about a road trip? Maybe a long hike in the mountains or a bike ride through the park? All of the aforementioned activities will be greatly enhanced with the purchase, play, pleasure and repeat (PPP&R) of this CD. That is a promise from the band. If you are not satisfied with the aformentioned PPP&R during any or all of the previously aformetioned activities, we promise we will work harder next time to deliver an even more satisfying listening experience. This is our promise to you, the valued consumer.
Lazlo Bane – working hard to make your life a little easier. Now get to it!

Yes, we’re crazy!
Lazlo Bane, here, reviewing our own album. (Is this allowed? Well then, 5 stars it is.) We were asked to cover “Stuck in the Middle with You” for a film and had so much fun we said what the heck, let’s keep going. Four months and 20 songs later and viola! Guilty Pleasures was born. The rules: A song from the 70’s you know, you might be a little embarrassed to admit you love, and you’re not exactly sure who wrote it. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did making it. XO-Lazlo
