5.0 out of 5 stars It is a rare event to find Boney M!!, August 18, 1999

By A Customer

I can't believe Amazon carries this selection. You can't find Boney M readily in the U.S. I'm so happy that I can finally purchase a Boney M CD so I don't have to listen to my old Boney M tapes that friends sent me from Europe over 10 years ago. For all your Eastern Europeans out there who grew up on this music - you need to buy yourself the CD version. It's great.

I was just too disgusted when I listened to the version of "Rivers Of Babylon" that opens this CD. The greatest Boney M hit appears here in a sort of remixed dance version that made me feel like smashing the disc. Forget about this little mistake of a release and go for the 1992 Boney M compilation named "Gold".

5.0 out of 5 stars SIMPLY SUPERB DANCE MUSIC, March 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)

I grew up in the Soviet Union. Boney M was one of the first Western dance music bands my buddies and I taped and DJed in our "homemade" discos! What a grand time it was! In the early 80s, the band became a living legend with their songs "Rasputin" "Sunny" "Nightflight to Venus" etc. I am very happy you have such a great selection of their albums. This one has all their truly best titles!
