P-Chunk 

In the late 70s and early 80s a number of heavier funk performers, feeling discriminated against by the thinner, coke addled record industry, joined together to form Parliament Chunkadelic. They were only together for three years and during that time 4 of the 7 members died due to complications from their weight, but if you can find any of their albums, grab them. They're good and rare.

P-Chunk tried to reform with the remaining members two years ago at a Jazz festival in Memphis, but two of the three had gastric bypass surgery. The third remaining member, seeing how thin the others had gotten refused to perform signaling the final nail in the coffin of Parliament Chunkadelic.
