Pacific Street is the debut album by British band The Pale Fountains. Contains all 11 of the songs that first appeared on it, plus 4 bonus tracks 'Thank You', 'Meadow of Love', 'Palm of My Hand' and 'Love's A Beautiful Place'.[2]

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 nearly a decade later fronting Shack.[3]
