TRIVIA:
When my brother Viswanath returned from Delhi, he had brought several of his collections of cassettes of english music. Vijju was liking Carpenters and Boney M very much. We were all listening to those cassettes again and again and enjoying.
I think every one likes to listen to Boney M, as they have rhythm, beat and melody and thus I attached 7 songs , which I hope you too might have heard them several times. Play and listen to them again, tap your feet and dance, so that you can recollect your Golden old days.
