Description

Started by a pair of British brothers, A Flock of Seagulls and their bizarrely teased hairdos have inspired decades of parodies. Their synth-heavy songs are as iconic as their style, and hits such as "I Ran (so far away)" define a generation. The electric guitar riffs are supported by the echoes of classical Casio keyboard, and their lyrics tug at the heartstrings of '80s children everywhere. Bands from three decades ago have broken up, reunited, found what works and what doesn't. A Flock of Seagulls topped world charts and found that the keyboard worked. The hair, not so much. - Kate Jacobson sanjose.com
