We had guys like Bobby in band class, not sure why - the most modern songs we performed were Conga by Gloria Estefan and All I Need Is a Miracle by Mike and the Mechanics, and our biggest crowd-pleaser for the parents in the bleachers during basketball games was the Dallas theme song. Maybe because in between sets, they liked playing tapes on the band room's admittedly bad-ass stereo set-up. I made them hate me when I put in a tape, and Stairway to Heaven started playing, which got them excited, but it was a parody with the words to Gilligan's Island replacing the lyrics. The Bobbys declared that sacrilegious.

Listen to the albums they were on (which were the first 2, "Killing is My Business...and Business is Good" and "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying"). Some of those time shifts and arrangements, also heard in other metal and progressive rock, have some jazz roots (and blues), whether they know it or not.
