Lee is an American musician best known as lead guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne between 1982 and 1987 and later as a member of the heavy metal band Badlands with Ray Gillen. He formed the band Red Dragon Cartel in 2013, and their debut album released in January 2014 entered the Billboard Album Chart at number 69
Probably into some shady drug shit. Similar happened to Gary Driscoll.
None of you probably know who that is. Gary was drummer of Elf, Cortland NY band featuring Ronnie James Dio. Deep Purple ended, Ritchie Blackmore recruited Elf as his band and formed Rainbow in the 70s, then fired them, except Dio, after the first album. When Ozzy was let go, Dio replaced him in Black Sabbath. Ozzy formed his own band, hired Randy Rhoads, who died, then hired Jake E Lee. Point being, these boys all knew each other and partied together, and you know in the 70s and 80s they partied, well, I do, I was there, in Cortland.
