- Today we dive into pop eurodisco group Boney M. "Rasputin" is the second single from their third studio album Nightflight to Venus released in July 1978. The song rose to the top of the charts in both Germany & Australia!
What Do Ya'll Think !?
Boney m super loved them great to hear them again thank you
This was the music you heard absolutely EVERYWHERE in Europe at the time...their look and Bobby's dancing was a real myth...Want to give you another suggestion: The Les Humphries Singers..a popchoir with incredible hits during the 70's.. Mamaloo and Mexico f ex!! 👍🇮🇹
Glad that you are back reacting to groups from 70's. From Boney M, please react "Daddy Cool", "Sunny", "Rivers of Babylon". And, please, keep doing ABBA.
They were a Frank Farian 'project" (he was a very talented German producer also responsible for Milli Vanilli) who released some big disco hits (some had Caribbean flavoured sounds) pretty popular mainly in Continental Europe.The male vocals you hear is not by the guy featured here but by Frank Farian too. These releases still stand the test of time compared to lots of studio trash that's been made the latest decades.'Rasputin" was a huge hit.
In the studio, as per this recording, the male vocal is actually the mastermind behind it all, Frank Farian. When actually live, Bobby did the male vocal. And most of the female vocals were all just the one voice and she is one of three in the group. As for the cultural influences, I don’t think there is too much importance to be placed on that.
Frank Farian got the Boney part from the title of an Australian TV show of the same name. He just liked the name. And I think the M was tacked on to avoid confusion.
I turned on the TV one day and it was the end of a detective series. I just caught the credits and it said Boney. Nice name, I thought - Boney, Boney, Boney... Boney M. Boney, Boney, Boney M. Nice sound. Simple.
man they had the good time stuff
Try the rivers of babylom
"Oh those russians " 😅😅😅😅. Remember it as a kid
Same here but I always thought it was 'Oh those fashions",😊
