CD1 is a modified version of 2006's "The Magic Of Boney M." compilation.
CD2 is the same as the "Barbra Streisand" compilation, except track 2.13 replaces the video as bonus track. Tracks 3-8 on CD2 are marked (P) 2011, but they are the same as on "20th Century Hits" from 1999, or alternate edits from it.

CD1: only tracks 1 & 7 are actually original mixes - despite the title "Versions Originales" - while the rest have percussion overdubs. Of the 70s & 80s productions (1-16), all but 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9 & 14 have been edited (compared to single versions).

1-12: lists one of writers as 'H. Korn', but on most releases 'Hela Lorin' appears instead. 'H. Korn' is similarly credited on a few other Boney M. compilations, where it's been linked to 'Heinz Korn'.
1-15: only one 'Huth' credited.
