All-star NYC blues-punk combo Boss Hog was helmed by the husband-and-wife team of singer Cristina
Martinez and singer/guitarist Jon Spencer, who previously teamed in the legendary cult band Pussy
Galore. The duo formed Boss Hog to fill a last-minute cancellation at the famed CBGB's, earning
instant notoriety when Martinez performed their debut show au naturel; guitarists Jerry Teel and Kurt
Wolf, bassist Pete Shore, and drummer Charlie Ondras completed the line-up for 1989's cassette-only
Drinkin', Lechin', and Lyin'. In the wake of 1990's Cold Hands, Spencer formed the Blues Explosion,
forcing Boss Hog on the backburner; by the time the group returned in 1993 with Girl +, only Martinez
and Spencer remained from the original lineup, with ex-Swan Jens Jürgensen assuming bass duties and
Hollis Queens joining on drums. The record's success in indie circles resulted in a deal with major
label Geffen which yielded a self-titled 1995 LP
