Editorial Reviews:
Full title; Ultimate Boney M. - Long Versions and Rarities. Excellent 2008 collection from the European Dance/Disco outfit containing extended and alternate mixes of their big hits. Boney M were put together by songwriter, producer and svengali Frank Farian as a 'front' for his own musical output. Although the three female members of Boney M appeared on the band's recordings, Farian supplied the male voice while DJ and dancer Bobby Farrell provided the face. Includes extended mixes of 'Rivers of Babylon', 'Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord', 'Bahama Mama', 'Ribbons of Blue' and more.
