About this album

Take the Heat Off Me introduced Boney M.’s glossy disco-reggae formula and quickly made the group a European pop phenomenon. Released in 1976, the album blends dancefloor disco, reggae-pop and exuberant studio craft, with “Daddy Cool” becoming the breakthrough hit that established the act’s flamboyant image and infectious hook-writing. Built around producer Frank Farian’s sharply commercial vision, it set the template for Boney M.’s run of chart success in the late 1970s, when their bright rhythms and memorable choruses crossed over far beyond club audiences. The record remains one of the key statements of the Euro-disco era.

Genre: Soul & Funk
