Gold - 20 Super Hits is a 1993 compilation album by Disco/Eurodance group Boney M.. Shortly after record label PolyGram had acquired the rights to the ABBA back catalogue and had issued the multimillion-selling hits package Gold - Greatest Hits, BMG and producer Frank Farian followed suit with Boney M.'s Gold - 20 Super Hits which resulted in their best chart entry in the UK (#14 - see The Greatest Hits) and most other European countries since 1980's The Magic Of Boney M. - 20 Golden Hits.

The album covers of some editions of the Gold career retrospective declared that these were the 'original masters' which was a truth with modification since producer Farian not only had edited most of the tracks but also had provided them with synthesized 90's percussion (disco hi-hats, sampled tambourines and handclaps). These new-ish mixes have since been presented as the original 70's versions on most Boney M. hit collections issued in the 90's and 2000's, including 2006's The Magic of Boney M..

Gold - 20 Super Hits/The Greatest Hits included a new "Boney M. Megamix" which had given Boney M. their 10th UK Top 10 entry in December of 1992 (#7, 7 weeks. Germany #26, 11 weeks.).
