Having played aboveboard hard stone with Mr. Big since the quarter end of the '80s, bass superstar Billy Sheehan formed Niacin as an outlet for his jazz fusion and prog stone inclinations during the mid-'90s. The threesome as well featured keyboardist John Novello and drummer Dennis Chambers, both musicians world Health Organization had crossed frequently between the worlds of jazz and rock music during their careers. With Niacin, Novello devoted himself particularly to the Hammond B-3 organ, a longtime mainstay of both jazz and prog stone. The isthmus recorded a self-titled debut record album in 1996, following it up in 1998 with High Bias. An import-only concert recording, Live!: Blood, Sweat and Beers, surfaced by and by that year as advantageously. For their next album, Niacin moved from Stretch to Magna Carta, the label that became virtually synonymous with technique-oriented neo-prog stone at the turn of the millenary. Deep was released in 2000 and featured the group's number 1 vocal path, courtesy of special guest Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple), as well as Toto guitarist and session champion Steve Lukather.
