Pacific Gas & Electric was an American blues rock band that formed in Los Angeles in 1967. Known for their fusion of blues, rock, and soul, the band's distinctive sound was largely influenced by lead vocalist Charlie Allen's soulful voice and Tom Marshall's guitar work. They garnered fame with their 1970 hit "Are You Ready?", which reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite numerous lineup changes, the band's contribution to the late 60s and early 70s music scene, particularly in the genre of blues rock, is significant.
