BONEY M. “Nightflight To Venus” /GLP/

The first re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary Euro-Caribbean Eurodisco/Reggae band.
Boney M.'s follow-up to their 1976 success "Take The Heat Off Me" closely adheres to the formula established by that album: a combination of original songs and offbeat cover versions done in a style that marries bubblegum Pop hooks to a Disco beat. Like its predecessor, "Love For Sale" also scored some notable international hits: "Ma Baker" is a colourful gangster story that boasts a stuttered vocal hook guaranteed to stick in the listener's head, and "Belfast" is an up-tempo dancefloor stormer, that works some surprisingly heavy sounding power chords into the group's slick dancefloor sound. Frank Farian's slick, lush production ensures that the album is a slick piece of ear candy from start to finish.
The album includes three covers: "Love for Sale" (by Cole Porter), "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?" (by Creedence Clearwater Revival), and "Still I'm Sad" (by The Yardbirds).
American label Atlantic Records found the cover "raunchy", so they used the standard back cover of a vinyl sleeve featuring the band wearing clothes as the alternative front cover of the American and Canadian edition.
High-resolution mastering from the original source by MM Sound, Steinhagen, Germany.
