I have been listening to the Hot Chocolate since the late 70s, this is 1999 and the music is still very fresh in my whole Being. It is a Gold that everyone needs to have.

Hot Chocolate, remarkable for being the first black British group to have continued success, made a carefully costructed, catchy brand of funk and soul music. Everyone knows You Sexy Thing because of its inclusion in The Full Monty, but most of the other 18 songs are well worth hearing too.

Hot Chocolate, fronted by the songwriter Errol Brown, didn't have a lot to say musically, but were at their best when their songs were emotional pop narratives, like Emma, It Started with a Kiss, and the anti-racist polemic Brother Louie. The major hits So You Win Again and the eponymous song are just pleasant light funk.

It's worth buying if you enjoy their biggest hits (and they stacked up an impressive number of them), but it's hardly an essential addition to one's collection.

Its one of the best music I been listening for past 19 Years - Review written on January 30, 1999

Its basically good music. Every 1's a winner, You saxy thing, Brother louie, Disco queen and So you wind again are the best. Emm is filled with emotions and sounds like a real life story.

Its worh the money you spend.
