ENUFF Z NUFF
By Harv
Review:
Donnie Vie, Chip Z Nuff, Vik Foxx & Derek Frigo: These names may or may
not be well known, but back in 1991 they released on of the best cd's of
the Hard Rock/Glam Metal era. The was cd #2 for the band and it's
argueably the most underrated cd of it's time. The band blends a terrific
mix of rocking songs w/power pop ballads and the occasional
violin(featured on the amazing title track that could put you in a
trance). Vie and Z Nuff are an
amazing duo that have the ability to blend their vocals together for some
of the sweetest harmonies you have heard since the days of
The Beatles. Being compared to the Fab 4 is nothing new to this
band. Backed by the powerful drumming of Fox and the soul of Frigo's
guitar, it's obvious the band was clicking on all cylinders while
writing/recording this record. It's a mystery to me, the fans, the band
and anybody else that own this cd regarding why the songs were not all
over the radio or MTV. This collection of songs should have made them
household names. Sadly that did not happen.
Favorite song:
With a collection of songs that add up to 14 tracks, it's very difficult
to pick only some favorites. Opening track "Heaven or Hell" comes out
firing with a guitar lick that is perfect for opening a concert.More
classics like "Baby Loves You" and "Blue Island (hometown of the band)
will have you hooked from the 1st verse.The cd closes with the beautiful
ballad "Time To Let You Go". 58 minutes after beginning the cd you realize
that you wanna play the cd again and again and again!
Least Favorite song:
Does not exist. Every single song is a favorite
Booklet:
10 pages full of lyrics, production credits, thank you, etc...middle
section is a black n white band photo
