| Enuff Z’nuff are the living, breathing example of what a rock ‘n roll group should be. Now centered around bass player and vocalist Chip Z’nuff, Enuff Z’nuff are still delivering the band’s patented power pop melded with hard rock stylings. Originally formed in 1984 in Chicago, IL, the band received their big break in 1989 when they signed to Atco/Atlantic Records. Founding members, Chip Z’Nuff and Donnie Vie were joined by guitarist Derek Frigo and drummer Vikki Foxx and they commenced work on their major label debut. The self-titled album was a monster hit and spawned two evergreen singles, New Thing and Fly High Michelle. Both received constant airplay on radio and heavy rotation on MTV, spending over 60 weeks in the Top 10. 1991 saw the band release their sophomore album, Strength. The album had more of a hard rock overtone and sustained the success achieved on the first album. The band made high profile television and radio appearances on the likes of David Letterman and Howard Stern and were featured in Rolling Stone’s Hot Issue as The Next Big Thing. The band soldiered on during the new musical climates of the ‘90s and have since gone on to release over a dozen more studio records. |
| On Enuff Z’Nuff’s Hardrock Nite, the band offers their reinterpretation of tracks from the world famous Liverpool musician’s repertoire with no samples, no synthesizers, no wizards behind the curtain, just four cats in the studio paying respect to their heroes. Enuff Z’Nuff’s Hardrock Nite is a colorful Cadillac Escalade driving 100 mph on the freeway without rules or regulation and just livin’ the dream. |
| When the band first emerged on the wider scene, Enuff Z’Nuff were acclaimed as rock’s “next big thing They were power-pop princes in glam-metal clothing and aptly described as The Beatles and Cheap Trick combined and reinvented for late 80’s US hard rock musical landscape. Long-time fans of the band have yearned, begged, and wished for a Beatles covers album from the band and now, finally, Enuff Z’ Nuff pay tribute to their main inspiration and musical heroes with Enuff Z’Nuff’s Hardrock Nite in their own inimitable and rocking fashion. Enjoy the ride, |

Personally I love the Beatles, and robin Zander sounds awesome covering Beatles or mccartney tunes , he is one of those freaks of nature who can still sing amazingly well into his mid 60s – not many bands do justice to the Beatles, how about a list of artists and bands who have done great covers of Beatles tunes….
Rpbert,
That is why I said, I am very finicky about anyone covering The Beatles. Dokken being one of the few exceptions.
Wow they just released thier 3 c.d boxset ( which is actually worth owning if you’re a fan) and it’s very good with 0% press pretty much.
Why is Chip doing this? I thought he and Donnie were sorting out thier differences and I was hoping a reunion down the line.
Also just because you are known to sound similar to the Beatles doesn’t mean you are as influential and innovative as that band. Many bands drew the same similarities back in the day but there are some (like Oasis) interpret that as being just as important.
I don’t know maybe Chip needs some cash…
