Take the Heat Off Me is the debut album by Euro-Caribbean group Boney M.. The album became a major seller outside of the United States, where the album just missed making the chart. Includes the hits "Daddy Cool" (#65 on the Billboard Hot 100, #11 on the Club Play Singles chart), "Sunny" and "Baby Do You Wanna Bump". The title – track is the cover of the 1974 Italian hit Nessuno mai (No one ever), sung by the Sicilian artist Marcella Bella and written by her brother Gianni Bella with Giancarlo Bigazzi.

"Take the Heat off Me" and "Lovin' or Leavin'" had previously been recorded by another Farian-produced artist Gilla on her 1975 album Willst du mit mir schlafen gehn?. Gilla would furthermore record German versions of "Sunny" and "No Woman No Cry" on her Zieh mich aus album later that year, using the same backing tracks. "Got a Man on My Mind" was rewritten from Farian's "Am Samstagabend" which was the B-side of his 1976 hit single "Rocky".
