Original OZ LP released in 1979 on Rak Records. Cat: SRTAK536.

Some people think of Hot Chocolate as a Euro-disco band, but most of its recordings can't be lumped in with the Euro-disco of the Silver Convention, Cerrone, or Giorgio Moroder. Hot Chocolate was primarily a soul/funk band, although the Londoners didn't hesitate to incorporate elements of pop/rock (David Bowie was an influence) and Afro-Caribbean music. Released in 1979, Going Through the Motions was a departure for Hot Chocolate in that it found the band making a conscious effort to appeal to Euro-disco audiences. Hot Chocolate's previous albums might have had the occasional Euro-disco item, but this time, the Euro-disco style is dominant. Moroder-style synthesizers are prominent, and tunes like "Dance (Get Down to It)," "I Just Love What You're Doing," and "Mindless Boogie" are obviously club-minded.
