Info:
It seemed like every single singer to dress androgynously and sing
about partying enjoyed massive success in the late '80s. Strangely, one
of the better singers of the genre, Donnie Vie, failed to hit the big
time with his band, Enuff Z'Nuff. The group managed to carve a niche for
itself, but by 2003, Vie was ready to go out and show what he could do
on his own, as he issued his first-ever solo album, Just Enough. As far
as the compositions go, Just Enough is not that different from what a
new Enuff Z'Nuff album would sound like, although sonically Vie cuts
back on the over-the-top production that his main band is known to
indulge in from time to time. In fact, the overall feel of the album is
probably not far off from a set of polished demos. Additionally, there
are few true up-tempo rockers here. But longtime Enuff Z'Nuff fans
shouldn't be deterred -- you're sure to enjoy such laid-back
Beatles-esque ditties as the album opening "Spider Web," "Wintergreen
Eyes," and "Alice in a Jam." And Vie also gets a chance to show off his
sensitive side on the acoustic ballads "That's What Love Is" and
"Wasting Time."
