This is the embryonic form of Boney M's singing group. The members of the singing group kept changing, and the soul Liz mccall came. She sang the most familiar song.

In the next two or three years, many of their songs occupied a place in the world charts. For the audience in China, the spread of Boney M's songs represents an era intentionally or unintentionally, and happy urban young people are moving from closed to open. At that time, there was no disco, and they couldn't help being happy. In their own homes, young people danced quietly and happily along with the melodies of songs such as "Babylon River" and "Dad is Cool" played on the "Banel Brick" tape recorder or double-speaker tape recorder, which led to the saying of "black light dance" and even received criticism at that time. But this disco whirlwind is blowing harder and harder, which also drives a trend of youth and fashion. Disco ball gradually changed from underground to public, and the word disco has continued to this day. However, the literary stage in those days was far less prosperous than it is today. Boney M didn't have a chance to come to China when they were popular, which is a great pity for those young people who were obsessed with disco in those years.
