| Biography: |
English pop band Hot Chocolate from London, England, was formed in 1969 by Errol Brown. The band currently comprises Tony Connor, Patrick Olive, Harvey Hinsley, Greg Bannis, Steve Beast and Andy Smith. The band was originally named 'The Hot Chocolate Band' by Mavis Smith, who worked for the Apple Corps press office. This was quickly shortened to Hot Chocolate by Mickie Most. They started their recording career making a reggae version of John Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance", but Brown was told he needed permission. Much to Brown's surprise, he was contacted by Apple Records, discovered that John Lennon liked his version, and the group was subsequently signed to Apple Records. In 1970, they with the help of record producer Mickie Most, began releasing tracks that became hits, such as "Love Is Life", "Emma", "You Could Have Been A Lady", and "I Believe in Love".
