Flash and the Pan (aka Flash & The Pan) was a New Wave / Rock band from Australia formed in 1977 by
Harry Vanda and
George Young, the older brother of the
AC/DC members
Angus Young and
Malcom Young. Both formerly members of
The Easybeats. In the UK, until the release of "Waiting for a Train" in 1983 they had been a one-hit wonder, which was coincidental as the expression, 'Flash in the pan', denotes something which is only briefly popular.
