Neanderthal Man - Hotlegs (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Neanderthal Man (Hotlegs, 1970). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-06-18. "Keeping the Oldies Alive"
"Neanderthal Man," written by Lol Creme, Kevin Godley and Eric Stewart, was Hotlegs only release that hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart landing at the no. 22 position in 1970 (Whitburn, 2013). However, the song was a no. 1 hit in Germany and Italy and rose to the no. 2 position in the UK (genius, 2022). Creme, Godley and Stewart were in the studio trying out some new recording equipment. According to Stewart, Dick Leahy, an A&R man from the Philips label, dropped by and asked "`What the hell's that you're playing?' I said, `It's a studio experiment; a percussive experiment.' He says, `It sounds like a hit record to me...' and `Can we release it?' And we said, `Yeah, okay'" (allmusic, 2022). At the time, they did not have a group name to place on the record, but they "had a girl at the studio… Kathy Gill, who had very, very nice legs and used to wear these incredible hot pants. So we called the group Hotlegs” (Genius, 2022). In 1972, they added Graham Gouldman to the group and changed their name to 10cc and had multiple hit songs (allmusic, 2022).
