HOT CHOCOLATE BAND

A reggae version created by Hot Chocolate was liked by Lennon, which got them signed to Apple and APPLE 18 was the result.

After leaving Apple, Hot Chocolate went on to much greater things on the Mickie Most RAK record label.
The band had at least one hit every year from 1970 to 1984, and just one No.1 (although, not their best record by far).
"You Sexy Thing" made the Top Ten in three different decades; 70's, 80's and 90's !

To see where this single release sits in the apple releases, see the Apple Records Single Listing.
