GILLA & BOBBY FARRELL (BONEY M ) .[ Gentlemen Callers Not Allowed] Roberto Alfonso Farrell (6 October 1949 – 30 December 2010), was an Aruban dancer, entertainer and singer, best known as the male member of the successful 1970s pop and disco group Boney M. In Germany, he worked mostly as a DJ until producer Frank Farian spotted him for his new Boney M. group. He became the sole male singer in the group, but Farian later revealed that Bobby made almost no vocal contributions to the group’s records, with Farian performing the male parts on the songs in the studio. Liz Mitchell said only she, Marcia Barrett and Farian had sung on the hit recordings.

He was replaced by Reggie Tsiboe. He re-joined in 1984 and continued as a member until it finally split in 1986.[5] Farrell’s daughter Zanillya Farrell says
