Success:Expanded Edition

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the debut album from the R&B/Dance duo. Originally known as Two Tons o' Fun, the group signed with Columbia Records and changed their name to The Weather Girls in 1982. The newly named duo's first single 'It's Raining Men' was quickly a massive club hit in the US, topping the Dance/Disco chart in 1982. Success featured the hit single and was a US chart hit. Despite only being a minor pop hit at home, 'It's Raining Men' became an international hit and eventually made #2 in the UK in 1984. Since then it has become a massive anthem. Success also featured the hit title track and 'I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair', which were also successful dance singles. The album demonstrated how strong the women's voices were and exploited their Gospel roots. Liner notes by Discussions Magazine's Stephen SPAZ SChnee. It is essential listening for all Hi-NRG, Disco and '80s Pop fans out there.
