Hot Chocolate chalked up at least one hit single every year between 1970 and 1984, a rare achievement and they are among the Top 200 most successful UK chart artists of all time.
Unlike many UK 'pop' acts of the day they scored chart success in the USA where 'Emma' (No.3), 'Disco Queen' (No.28), 'You Sexy Thing' (No.3), 'So You Win Again' (No.31), and 'Every 1's A Winner' (No.6) were all Billboard Top 40 hits.
24 of these singles were also chart entries in Germany while eight of them went Top 20 in Australia, the band scoring hits across most of Europe as well
The booklet comes complete with detailed notes on each single by 1970s expert Phil Hendriks
and is fully illustrated with sleeves from across the globe
