History

Frank Farian recorded the single "Baby Do You Wanna Bump?" in 1975, performing the sparse vocals of the song himself. Released under the name Boney M, it became a hit in the Netherlands and Belgium. It was then that Farian decided to hire a team of dancers and vocalists to 'front' the group, so it was created thereafter, and made up of four West Indian artists working in London, Germany and the Netherlands: singers Marcia Barrett and Liz Mitchell, model Maizie Williams, and DJ Bobby Farrell.

The line-up of the group went through numerous changes, Maizie Williams being the only original member that remained. Not satisfied with merely miming to Farian's songs, one of the members, Claudja Barry, left on short notice in February 1976 – days before the group was scheduled to appear on a local television gig in Saarbrücken. Liz Mitchell, then an unemployed singer and formerly a member of the Les Humphries Singers, was brought in as a temporary replacement for the gig, under the recommendation of Marcia Barrett. Farian was impressed with her performance, and she went on to record Boney M's first LP, Take The Heat Off Me, along with Marcia Barrett, who had already recorded some songs with Farian for the album; these were the title track, and "Lovin' Or Leavin'".

The commercial response to the album was lukewarm. However, the group rigorously toured discos, clubs and even country fairs, to earn a reputation for themselves. The group's big break came when, at the end of that summer, music-TV-producer Michael 'Mike' Leckebusch of Radio Bremen, requested the group for his show Musikladen. Boney M appeared on the live music show on 18 September 1976, after 10pm, in their now trademark daring costumes; by the end of the following week, "Daddy Cool" became Germany's #1 single in the charts. The album was to follow the success of the single. Current logo of Radio Bremen. ... Musikladen was a German music television programme that ran from December 13, 1972 to November 29, 1984. ...

In 1977, Boney M released their second album Love For Sale, and this contained further hits "Ma Baker" and "Belfast". Neither Love For Sale nor Take The Heat Off Me did very well in the UK Album Charts, due to their rather risqué covers. In 1978, Boney M had their biggest year: they released a new single, "Rivers of Babylon", which became a massive selling single all over Europe and #1 in the UK Singles Chart. (It also became their closest attempt to a hit in the United States, reaching number 30 on the U.S. pop singles chart). Next came their biggest-selling album, Nightflight to Venus, which spawned a further single "Rasputin". Continuing with their success, they released "Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord", which was the 1978 Christmas number one single in the UK. Also during 1978, Boney M became the first Western pop group to tour the Soviet Union. Ma Baker was a 1977 music single released by the Euro-disco group Boney M.

1979 saw Boney M release their fourth album, Oceans Of Fantasy, containing two hit singles – "El Lute"/"Gotta Go Home" and "I'm Born Again"/"Bahama Mama". The track "No More Chain Gang", one of a number of black freedom songs the group recorded, exemplified Boney M's mix of white and black music – the producer Farian is white, and the singers are black. They also released another hit single, "Hooray! Hooray! It's A Holi-Holiday". In 1980, Boney M released a greatest hits album, The Magic Of Boney M, which also contained two new songs, "My Friend Jack" and "I See A Boat On The River". This album made the #1 spot in the UK, and was their last big UK-seller until "Boney M Megamix" in 1992. American-born singer Madeleine Davis, who was one of the group's recording backing vocalist, replaced Liz Mitchell for live concerts, because Liz wished to promote her solo career, rather than join Maizie, Marica and Bobby on stage. She appeared in the video, "The Summer Mega Mix" and became a member of Marcia / Maizie and Bobby's Boney M for the single release "Everybody Wants To Dance Like Josephine Baker".

Despite his success with Boney M, controversy followed the group's founder, Frank Farian, in what was to foreshadow his fakery involvement with Milli Vanilli. Bobby Farrell – the male face of the group – and Maizie Williams contributed to studio recordings, but for reasons only known to Farian, were apparently left off the final mixes, while their numerous and highly competent live performances from 1977 onwards were never in any doubt. Almost all of the male vocals, along with some of the choir sections in songs such as "Dancing In The Streets" and "Bye Bye Bluebird", were performed by Farian himself. Farrell, as Farian had finally admitted on German television in 2003, had been chosen for his personality and innovative dancing. However, in Germany, it was considered acceptable that 'producer music' just works this way. Milli Vanilli (milli is a word meaning national in Turkish, picked up by the artists while visiting Turkey on one of its national days) was a duo, Fabrice Morvan and Rob Pilatus, formed in Germany in the mid-1980s. ...

As of 2006, Liz Mitchell is currently touring the world with her line-up of Boney M, which is the only official line-up supported by Farian (the court ruling of 1990 stated that all four members are entitled to perform their own Boney M shows), as well as releasing solo albums. Marcia Barrett has released two solo albums, and Maizie and Bobby are touring with their own Boney M groups which is not what Farian wants as he only allowed Liz Mitchell to use the name Boney M. Bobby Farrell recorded his own Boney M tribute album in 2005 and Maizie Williams released her first solo album Christmas 2006. Maizie Williams releases her version of "Sunny" as a single February 2007 while Madeleine Davis is currently working on a solo jazz CD to be released in 2007.

A musical based on the music of Boney M, Daddy Cool, is now open in London, with a second show opening in Berlin in April 2007. Daddy Cool tells the story of ‘Sunny’, a young man who lives for his music. ...

In October 2006, pop singer Peter Wilson, who during the mid 90's scored a couple of Top 40 hits in his native Australia, recorded a brand new song, co-written by Frank Farian, which is to be included on his forthcoming album, "Follow Me" – due for release in mid 2007. The song entitled "Doin' Fine" is described as paying tribute to the 'sound' of Boney M and features the infamous string arrangement from their Number 1 hit, "Daddy Cool". Pete Wilson Peter Barton Wilson (born August 23, 1933) is an American Republican politician from California. ...

In a sign of their continued popularity in South Asia, a concert by Boney M (featuring Marcia Barrett) was a featured attraction at the 37th International Film Festival of India (IFFI), which took place at 23rd November 2006 in Panaji, the state capital of Goa, India. The group is also popular in the Vietnamese Diaspora, and was recently featured in Thuy Nga music productions.

In the UK, a new album of their greatest hits, entitled "The Magic Of Boney M" was released via BMG on 27 November 2006. Special additions to this release were a Mousse T remix of "Sunny" and a brand new song from 2006, featuring Liz Mitchell, entitled "A Moment Of Love".

UK sales marks

In 1978, "Rivers of Babylon", with lyrics partly based on Psalm 137^[2], became (at the time) the second highest-selling single of all time in the UK. After "Rivers Of Babylon" slipped back down the chart, the B-side "Brown Girl in the Ring" was given extensive airplay on the radio, and the single climbed back up the chart to #2. It eventually sold 500 copies short of 2 million. Rivers of Babylon is a spiritual song penned by the late Brent Dowe and Trevor McNaughton of the Melodians. ...
