There are usually only a small handfull of bands that can stand out and define an era of music . When it comes to the rock 'n' roll resurgence in the late 80's, the BulletBoys are one of the few musical artists whose talent, intensity, and unique style made them rise to the top of their field. While other bands leaned towards a 'bubble-gum" pop-rock style, the BulletBoys had an undeniable groove and R&B vocal flair that won over fans and audiences around the world. BulletBoys self-titled debut album was released in 1988, receiving much critical acclaim. Immediately, their first single "Smooth Up In Ya' shot to the top of the music charts. Their next singles, 'Hard as a Rock' and a cover of the O'Jays song, 'For the Love Of Money', helped to skyrocket the sales of their album and secure their place among rock's top artists. Their world tour, which included opening slots for such bands as Ozzy Osbourne and Cinderella, proved to be extremely successful. BulletBoys released their second album FREAKSHOW, in 1990. The album spawned the popular singles 'THC Groove' 'Talk To Your Daughter', and a cover of Tom Waits' "Hang On St. Christopher", FREAKSHOW showed the inventive nature of the BulletBoys music. The album had more twists and turns than the average rock record, and was considered to be alternative rock, even before alternative was what it is today.

The band released ZAZA, their third Warner Brothers album, in 1993. While the rock 'a' roll'- era was coming to an end, the Bulletboys proved that certain bands would be able to survive and continue to put out great rock records. While still considered a rock album, ZAZA was much more of a pop record than their previous two releases. The band had hits with both their first single "When Pigs Fly", as well as the band's first foray into ballads, 'Mine'. After the ZAZA tour had ended, turmoil within the band led to the departure of Mick and Jimmy, and they were subsequently replaced.

Marq Torien and Lonnie Vencent along with the new members, put out their fourth record ACID MONKEY in 1995, and toured the country in support of it. While the album was not as successful in terms of sales as its predecessors, ACID MONKEY showcased the band's progression and evolution in songwriting, while still spotlighting the musician ship and vocal talents that make them stars. In April of 1999, problems were put aside and the four original members were reunited for a Performance at Maverick Stadium in Adelante, California. The band, overwhelmed by the response from the sellout crowd, could not deny that the chemistry they once shared was still there. As a tribute to their fans, the four members agreed to join forces to re-record all of their hits for their latest release Greatest Hits- Burning Cats and Amputees.- People with Issues. In doing so, they recaptured the magic that made them one of rock 'n' roll's shining stars.
