Boney M were a famous band in England at the time, a Euro-Caribbean vocal group created by German record producer Frank Farian and originally based in Germany.

With the three elegant women who sang was a man who was an interesting dancer miming to the the male vocals (provided by the producer) in their performances and they became a house hold name.

So even if you were not interested in their records, you could watch them on television, hear them on the radio all the time and remember them.
