People often forget this, but the whole reason Dave Lombardo quit Slayer the first time was to form this band with Elvis, whom he had recently met at a massage parlor. It just so happened they also found Kenny G there as well, hanging out in the back room playing a duet with a Soothing Sounds of Nature CD. Their unique blend of thrash, smooth jazz and rockabilly immediately won critics over, though they had a highly publicized legal dispute with the PMRC over some of Elvis' lyrical content. Let's just say the people of the 1950s certainly wouldn't have been ready for his tales of inter-cousin love affairs and leave it at that. Nevertheless, they released three classic albums before flaming out in the early 00s with a very public spat caused by Kenny G's ongoing meth problems.
