Martha Wash and Izora Armistead were
originally backing singers for the legendary
disco diva Sylvester. They soon became
known as Two Tons O' Fun and were signed to
the Fantasy Honey label who issued their
eponymous debut LP in 1980. Tracks like
'Earth Can Be Just Like Heaven', 'Just Us' and
'Do You Wanna Boogie Hunh?' were club disco
hits helping to ensure the album sold strongly
in dance circles.
" Amazingly, "Two Tons O' Fun" has not been
repressed since it first hit the streets back in
1980. Thus, Ace are delighted to serve up two
Tons O Fun on two sides of vinyl which not
only feature those classic tracks but also 'I Got
The Feeling', 'Make Someone Feel Happy
Today', 'One-Sided Love Affair' and 'Taking
Away Your Space'.
" As you might know, after one more Two Tons
album, they became the Weather Girls scoring
the international hit 'It's Raining Men'. But the
raining started here!
