Real Gone Music

<p>Real Gone Music is a U.S. reissue label that was established in 2011 by two individuals who previously founded other successful labels. With a focus on reissuing music from various genres, Real Gone Music aims to bring back classic and hard-to-find albums for music enthusiasts. They have gained a reputation for their high-quality releases and attention to detail, ensuring that the original branded label is included if shown on the release. Please note that there is an unofficial entity pretending to be Real Gone Music, so be sure to look out for the authentic label when making your purchases. Also, it's important not to confuse Real Gone Music with the UK/Europe based budget reissue label that issues multi-disc box sets in different genres and series.</p>

Before they achieved stardom the world over with “It’s Raining Men,” Weather Girls Martha Wash and Izora Rhodes Armstead made waves in the thriving San Francisco music scene as Two Tons o’ Fun (and, later, The Two Tons).  The powerhouse duo began working with gender- and genre-defying artist Sylvester at Fantasy Records, singing background and lead vocals on many of his most memorable recordings.  In 1980, they struck out on their own and teamed with legendary Motown veteran Harvey Fuqua (who had also helmed Sylvester’s beloved albums) for two remarkable LPs on his Honey Records imprint.  Fusing disco, dance, soul, funk, and R&amp;B with roof-raising, gospel-tinged vocals, both Two Tons o’ Fun and Backatcha put the extraordinary voices of “Queen of Clubland” Wash and Armstead out front. 

Two Tons o’ Fun’s Get the Feeling: The Complete Fantasy/Honey Recordings brings together, on 2 CDs, both of the Two Tons’ albums – the first of which features Sylvester himself in the band – plus a host of rare single versions, remixes, and extended versions. Both albums have long been overlooked; their last CD reissue was more than thirty years ago in the U.K.; this collection marks both albums’ U.S. CD debut, while most of the bonus tracks are also new to worldwide CD.  For the occasion, all audio has been newly remastered by Mike Milchner, and we are remastering the two albums straight from the original tapes, so this collection will offer a big sonic upgrade.  The collection also contains a deluxe booklet featuring liner notes by The Second Disc’s Joe Marchese and unseen photos.  With the return of Two Tons o’ Fun, only one exclamation is appropriate: Hallelujah!
