- THE SLOWER NUMBERS
Of course Boney M were masters of dance in the late 1970's and early 1980's, but they did have some hits with ballads too. This collection includes the hits El Lute, Neil Young's Heart of Gold, Little Drummer Boy, Mary's Boy Child, I See A Boat On The River and of course their massive hit Rivers of Babylon (Originally done by The Melodians). But it's not really representative of their best music which included red-hot rabble rousing dancefloor sizzlers like Brown Girl In The Ring, Daddy Cool, Belfast and Ma Baker. To get all their best work together, I recommend The Greatest Hits album. Still, this collection is pleasant enough as an enjoyable memento of 70's/80's Europop in the Abba vein. 2 personas de un total de 2 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:
- Another great Boney M album.
I first became a fan of the Boney M in the 1970's. They are outstanding. I have a large collection of their musoic and will continue to add to it. This is a "must" to own, with their earliest to lastest. 2 personas de un total de 3 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:
- Boney M is GREAT, but this is not the comp to buy.
This is a CD chocked full of the slower Boney M songs, starting down with an chopped-up way-too edited version of The Carnival Is Over, a song way too good to deny in its complete form. I highly recommend the 2 CD Greatest Hits import where you can enjoy the complete unabridged version of the abovementioned song. Although I enjoyed their rendition of "Heart of Gold" and the Christmas tunes, this collection is one of the weaker Boney M compilations. Boney M was such an awesome group, but they have so many other CDs that reign over this one! 2 personas de un total de 3 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:

"Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind
Somewhere in the world, that's what I must find"
If you can relate...

I loved them so much in 70-s and 80-s when I was a teenager. I have not listened to their music for a very long time since then. For some reasons they are not popular in the US as they were in Europe. Anyway, had a chance to listen for their music again and found it as fresh and optimistic as it was long time ago.
On the other hand my teenager excitment is gone. By the way, melody in "Carnival Is Over" is very much close to the melody of the very popular 19-th century Russian song about "Sten'ka Razin"...
