David Sanborn "Bang Bang"

Jazz was everywhere in the 1990s. Jay Leno enlisted jazz instrumentalist Branford Marsalis to lead the Tonight Show Band from 1992 until 1995. Elaine Benes briefly dated jazz saxophonist John Jermaine during the 1996 episode (entitled "The Rye") of Seinfeld. Another prominent artist of the smooth jazz scene is David Sanborn whose upbeat tune "Bang Bang" found a home on soft rock radio stations in 1992. Sanborn actually didn't appreciate his name being synonymous with smooth jazz.
