Errol Brown was the singer, songwriter, and frontman of the successful British band, Hot Chocolate. Amongst their biggest chart hits were "You Sexy Thing" and "Brother Louie".
Brown went solo in the eighties, and achieved success in the clubs with his 1987 single and twelve inch, "Body Rockin'", produced by Richard James Burgess.
The 1990s saw Brown slip into the background. It was the use of the Hot Chocolate single, "You Sexy Thing" in the 1997 movie, "The Full Monty", that brought Brown out of retirement.
In 2003 Brown was appointed as an MBE for services to popular music. 2004 saw him presented with an Ivor Novello Award for outstanding contributions to British music. Errol lived in The Bahamas until his death in 2015.
