Boney M: A hit almost everywhere but here
Wayne Robins, Newsday, 18 March 1979
THEY'VE BEEN No. 1 in Germany and Japan, Israel and Kuwait, France, Peru, Portugal, Kenya and dozens of other countries. One of their singles recently displaced Paul McCartney's 'Mull of Kintyre' (a failure in the U.S.) as the biggest selling record ever in Great Britain. Tickets to see one of their Moscow concerts went for as much as $300 each on the black market, and they are celebrities in virtually every country in the world, except for one: the United States.
