Oceans
of Fantasy became the second Boney M. album to top the UK charts and
features the hits "El Lute / Gotta Go Home" and "I'm Born Again / Bahama
Mama".
The album had been preceded in the spring of 1979 by the
single "Hooray! Hooray! It's a Holi-Holiday" (based on the American
folksong "Polly Wolly Doodle"), one of the band's biggest hits. This was
not included on Oceans of Fantasy but the B-side, "Ribbons of Blue"
was, albeit in a heavily edited form. The original length of the track
is 4:02, and songs like "Gotta Go Home" and "Bahama Mama" were also
longer on 7" than on the actual album.
As with the group's previous
album, Nightflight to Venus, the original Hansa Records pressings of the
album also included a range of different edits of certain tracks.
The
1994 CD version used same master with East German version of the album.
(Same with fourth pressing, but "Ribbons of Blue" is longer like the
other pressings, 2:01 min.) unlike the common West German pressings with
different edits of certain songs. On 2007 reissue, two bonus tracks
added to the album.
Several pressings also contained the wrong
running order on cover and labels, incorrectly listing "El Lute" as the
opening track on side two, followed by "No More Chain Gang" and "Oceans
of Fantasy" like only the first pressing.
The first pressing also
features "Let It All Be Music" and "Gotta Go Home" segued together. So
the later pressings feature the songs separately.
Oceans of Fantasy
also features a guest appearance by Eruption's lead singer Precious
Wilson on "Let It All Be Music" and the cover of Sam & Dave's "Hold
On I'm Coming", which was also issued as Wilson's first solo single. The
Argentinian pressing omitted "El Lute" in favour of "Hooray! Hooray!
It's a Holi-Holiday".
