The Power Station

Hard-edged pop supergroup the Power Station formed around members of Duran Duran and Chic with singer Robert Palmer, blending synthy '80s dance-rock hooks with heavy funk grooves. They scored several hits and heavy MTV rotation with 1985's The Power Station, including "Some Like It Hot" and a cover of T.Rex's "Bang a Gong." While line-up changes brought the group to end, they reunited for 1996's Living in Fear before once again calling it a day.
