    • Source: Chocolate Milk (album)
    • Chocolate Milk is the second and final studio album by the American soul/R&B vocal duo Charles & Eddie. The title refers to the duo's mixed race; Charles Pettigrew who is black (chocolate) and Eddie Chacon who is white (milk). The first single was "24-7-365".
      The album produced two Top 40 hit singles: "24-7-365" (New Zealand, Switzerland and UK) and "Jealousy" (Austria).
      The song "Little Piece of Heaven" was covered by the Neville Brothers on their 1999 LP, Valence Street.


      Critical reception


      The Independent wrote: "There's little innovation in evidence here but Charles & Eddie's various takes on early Seventies soul modes are done with such obvious affection and care it's usually possible to hear beyond the influence to the emotion."
