More Gold – 20 Super Hits Vol. II is a 1993 greatest hits album by Boney M.. As PolyGram released More ABBA Gold in 1993 to follow up the highly successful Gold: Greatest Hits, BMG and producer Frank Farian issued More Gold - 20 Super Hits Vol. II containing the remainder of Boney M.'s best known songs - again most of them appearing in remixed or overdubbed form but credited as the original versions - as well as four new recordings featuring lead singer Liz Mitchell.
More Gold - 20 Super Hits Vol. II spun off two European single releases, "Ma Baker Remix '93" and "Papa Chico", the latter credited as 'Boney M. feat. Liz Mitchell' and released in early 1994.
1994 also saw the CD debut of eight of the original Boney M. albums; Take the Heat off Me, Love for Sale, Nightflight to Venus, Oceans of Fantasy, Boonoonoonoos, Ten Thousand Lightyears, compilation Kalimba de Luna - 16 Happy Songs and Eye Dance, all released by BMG in collaboration with Frank Farian's own record label MCI.
