Just learned of the passing of Frank Farian. He was a brilliant record producer who created a high-quality disco sound for Boney M. Eruption and La Bouche. His music will live on for generations to come. He will now be at rest alongside Melanie Thornton and Bobby Farrell. Thank you Frank for the wonderful music.

Frank heard about three American singers from Munich in the 1980´s who did BV´s for many English language productions throughout Europe. He flew us to Frankfurt where we were driven to Europa Sound and recorded BV´s for Precious Wilson. Later we did BV´s for BoneyM. We named ourselves LaMama. I am so proud the Universe put us in each other´s paths. I will always chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo for all my deceased colleagues reposes.

I first met Frank Farian on the video set of "Gifts" new single "Yummy Yummy" . His new musical act that my sister was a part of. I remember seeing him always calm with a poised demeanor and that´s how I always remembered him. In 2022 he allowed me to make some extra cash by doing some touch ups around his home. I wish I knew how to sing lol. Frank´s a humble and down to earth person that made many songs that I´ve considered my favorites. May your peace follow you Mr. Farian. Thanks for all you´ve done for Art.
