Burlesque: Seriously Good Music is a compilation album of eclectic and quirky contemporary burlesque and neo-burlesque performers from around the world, released in 2007. It was assembled by CM Murphy, manager of INXS and founder of Petrol Records. The album was released on compact disc by Petrol and EMI America Records with liner notes by Deborah Niski. Original, naughty, sometimes freaky and frequently funny—not just for tassel teasing but good for a party and flicking the feather duster around the house.
In 2006–2007, Petrol Records released a series of eleven albums in the Seriously Good Music series. Each album focuses on a specific genre or subgenre: Bollywood, bossa nova, burlesque, Celtic music, cocktail, Gypsy music, Latin music, lounge music, reggae, salsa music (and a second salsa album). The Burlesque collection is generally regarded as the best in the series.
