[spoiler="Об исполнителе (группе)"]
Этот альбом НЕ от поп-группы, записавшей "You Sexy Thing." Это американская группа. Изначально альбом был выпущен в 1971 году и затем переиздан в на виниле и компакт диске в 1999-м.

This album is NOT by the band that did "You Sexy Thing." This is an American band. The album was originally released in 1971 and seems to have been reissued on both vinyl and CD in 1999.

[spoiler="Об альбоме (сборнике)"]
Hot Chocolate, originally released in 1971 on Coco Records, was recorded by a trio comprised of Tony Roberson (drums), George Pickett (bass), and lead singer/guitarist Lou Ragland. Ragland recorded a handful of singles for various recording entities in Cleveland and also served as Saru Records' A&R director and main producer prior to former O'Jays' Bobby Massey assuming the duties. If you like elaborate productions, you'll find this collection crude and garage-esque, but to many the sparse instrumentation gives it charm and flavor. This is pure heart: raw funk-soul done on a mini-budget, reminiscent of New Orleans funkmeisters the Meters. The selections feature funkers and dancefloor items like "Ain't That a Groove" and "What You Want to Do"; the instrumental "Messin' With Sly" with the band vamping to "Sing a Simple Song"; and the two wailers "We Had True Love" and "What Should I Do," the latter which Ragland released in 1974 on SMH Records as a solo venture. Ballads are Ragland's forte; his rendition of "Never Let Me Go" on Way Out Records (1964) is still to be cherished. The cover depicts the trio hot tubbing in a cup of hot chocolate with Ragland and Pickett holding their guitars. An original copy on Coco (only 500 were pressed) is worth plenty in collectors' circles. ~ Andrew Hamilton, All Music Guide
