5.0 out of 5 stars Disco-Carribean superhits of the 70's, February 13, 2007

By	Gary Selikow (Great Kush) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Boney M was one of the best known bands of the 70's.
Famed for their disco hits, with a prominent Caribbean style.
This album takes you back to the best of their work, when they were being played all over the place, during the glorious 70's,
Personal favourites include Daddy Cool which is pure glorious 70's, the beautiful gospel sounds of Rivers Of Babylon-the way the words of the psalm are set to music is done so beautifully it gives me goosebumps,the hope-filled Sunny, the wonderful Boney M version of the Bob Marley classic No Women no Cry-I can actually hear the words much better when Boney M sing it then when Bob Marley sings it , the bouncy Brown Girl In The Ring, the infectious Rasputin, the jolly calypso Hooray Hooray It's A Holi-Holiday, the soulful El Lute, the cute Happy Song, the gentle Still Im Sad, the pure disco of Baby Do You Wanna Bump, the catchy Ma Baker and the Latin Felicidad; as well as a brand new song from 2006,featuring original member lead singer Liz Mitchell, A Moment Of Love.
Let's recreate the 70's and start with something like this funky disco and Caribbean album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Boney M and Amazon-a great combo!, January 14, 2009

By	Lila Kate (Prineville, Or) - See all my reviews

We were very pleased with our service @ Amazon and the cd we purchased. Boney M is a great group with a lot of vocal diversity. Their vocal compositions are awesome, but most of all the instrumentation gives me chills when I listen to it. I would recommend this cd to anyone who wants a musical "lift". I always feel joyful after listening to this cd-it makes a great "road trip" cd. We played it repeatedly going through Canada.
