Pacific Street contained an acoustic sound tendentially, engaged in trumpet and flute, with influences from Burt Bacharach, Love, Bossa nova and new and extremely melodious pop songs.
The band would record one more album before splitting and Head would re-emerge a few years later fronting Shack.[3]

gollark: Also the fact that most stuff, even if it uses DC internally (most things probably do), runs off mains AC and has some sort of built-in/shipped-with-it power supply, and there aren't really common standards for high-powered lower-voltage DC connectors around. Except USB-C, I guess? That goes to 100W.
gollark: I guess it depends on exactly what you do, and the resistance of the wires.
gollark: Which is as far as I know more an issue of low voltages than DC itself, but DC means you can't change the voltage very easily.
gollark: There is the problem that low-voltage DC loses power more quickly over longer distances.
gollark: Yes, you're right, let's just replace our lightbulbs with idealized magic visible light emitters.
