Hot Chocolate Het Beste Van Hot Chocolate (CD)

(1990/EMI) 18 tracks

Hot Chocolate are one of the defining British groups associated with the meeting point of soul, funk, pop and disco. Het Beste Van Hot Chocolate is a 1-CD compilation released in 1990 on Eva Records and listed as a 14 Greatest Hits edition. The collection focuses on the group’s successful period and reflects the distinctive combination of catchy songwriting, soulful grooves, danceable rhythms and pop accessibility that made Hot Chocolate a lasting name in British popular music. Songs such as You Sexy Thing, So You Win Again, It Started With A Kiss, Every 1's A Winner and Emma represent different sides of the group’s hit-making style, from soulful pop and funk influences to disco-oriented arrangements. Errol Brown’s unmistakable voice is an important part of the sound and gives the recordings their characteristic identity. FOMO for collectors and listeners who enjoy classic soul, funk, disco and British pop from the 1970s and early 1980s. This compact CD is particularly interesting for anyone looking for a straightforward introduction to Hot Chocolate’s successful catalogue rather than a large multi-disc anthology. If these timeless grooves and memorable melodies are part of your musical world, this edition is one to keep on the radar.
