Love Story was an all-star trio comprising Buddy England and Ian Turpie on guitars and vocals and Richard Wright (ex The Groop) on drums. As Love Story they recorded a cover of "Neanderthal Man", a song written and recorded by Kevin Godley, Lol Creme and Eric Stewart, three quarters of what soon would become 10CC. Released under the name Hotlegs, it was a huge success for them, reaching #2 in mid-1970, it also charted in several other countries (including Australia) and sold more than two million copies. Love Story's version co-charted with Hotlegs locally, peaking at #15 on the Go-Set Top 60 and charting for 12 weeks. Ian Turpie died in 2012. Richard Wright died in 2020.
