    Ex-member of Boney M

    Eeeeeaaasy question (because it's Friday):

    Which dance/pop diva was a member of the aboriginal Boney M line-up (@75/76) before she was replaced with Liz Mitchell? The diva whose name I am asking for studied classical opera and she has sung in some of the world's best venues, e.g., Studio 54, The Saint (NYC), the Palace (Paris). She also appeared in musicals in West and former East Germany. If I mentioned only one of the song titles she released as part of her solo career, it would be toooooooooooooo easy, but you know the answer anyway, correct?

    I was assuming you meant Claudja Barry, but she was apparently replaced by Marcia Barret; Liz Mitchell originally replaced Sheyla Bonnick.

    Yep, it's Claudja. Wasn't she a member for only 1 week???

    (But I would say Frank Farian since he was Boney M all by himself in the early days).

    Yeah, apparently not only did he do the male vocals, but also the female vocals on some tracks. It appears he did "Baby do you wanna bump?" (my favorite Boney M track) all by himself.
