After I heard about his death, I Googled "Brown Girl in the Ring", but all I could find was loads of YouTube videos of Audley Harrison.

Surprised you didnt find my video of the same said I did years ago..LOL

Yeah man. Who could ever have a 70's revival disco party and not know who Boney M was

By The Rivers ofBabay
Rasputin are the first two that come to mind. The saddest part is..61 aint even that old for abloke whos still fit and of sound mind

I read he had some problems a few years ago and thought he was washed up because of it so I think going out on a performance high probably wouldve been to his liking.

The irony of this all is Boney M was the first group from the West Brezhnev allowed to perform in Red Square back in the height of the cold war era

How odd.

History has it that Saint Petersburg is also where (Ra-Ra-) Rasputin was murdered.

Apparently he contributed virtually nothing to the vocals on any of Boney M's hits / albums. They were all done by someone else, but he was credited as lead singer. He did sing live though.
