Jakey Lou Williams (born February 15, 1957, Norfolk, Virginia, United States), better known as Jake E. Lee, is a guitarist and composer of rock music. Lee is most famous for his collaboration with Ozzy Osbourne from 1983 to 1987. Subsequently, Jake formed a group called Badlands with vocalist Ray Gillen, bassist Greg Chaisson , and drummer Eric Singer. Badlands's self-titled debut was released in 1989. Singer was replaced by Jeff Martin for the group's 1991 effort, Voodoo Highway.
Through the 1990s and into the 2000s Lee has kept a fairly low profile, appearing as a guest artist on many "tribute" albums.
