Various artists
“Enconium”
Atlantic Records ,
Grade: A
“Enconium” is a tribute to the
music of Led Zeppelin by today’s
top alternative acts. It’s interesting
that twenty-something Generation
X bands were picked to cover the
tunes of the definitive 1970s arena
rock band.
These bands grew up with Zep
pelin in heavy rotation on the al
bum-oriented rock Stations, but they
profess a purist rock ethic which
shuns Zeppelinesque larger-than
life epics. Thus, the bands on this
collection stick to Zeppelin jams
instead of Zeppelin epics.
The album kicks off with 4 Non
Blondes covering one of Zeppel in ’ s
heaviest jams, “Misty Mountain
Hop.” Linda Perry lays out a flaw
less Zep-scream that calls to mind
the vocal acrobatics that defined
Robert Plant’s mid-’70s sound.
Dave Navarro, former Jane’s Ad
diction guitarist, cops the signature
Jimmy Page ri ff and throws on some
’90s distortion.
Stone Temple Pilots tackle
“Dancing Days” but mellow it out
with acoustic guitars and a lazy
beat. This version sounds surpris
ingly like the acoustic “Dancing
Days” that Zeppelin performed in
concert.
Blind Melon follows the 4 Non
Blondes route of throwing Zep
screams onto distorted guitar for
their version of “Out on die Tiles.”
The Blind Melon arrangement has
a heavier edge than the Zeppelin
version, taking on the feel of “The
Immigrant Song.”
The low point of this album is
Helmet’s version of “Custard Pie.”
The vocals sound like a drunken
sailor and include coughs and grunts
and bodily noises. Clearly Helmet
is mocking Led Zeppelin and hav
ing a laugh at Atlantic’s expense.
Robert Plant appears at the end
to provide his own tribute in a
barely-recogni zable “Down by the
Seaside.” He is backed by Tori
Amos who adds atonal moaning to
Plant’s rambling, tuneless vocals.
It is a limp ending to the collection,
leaving the listener with the feeling
that the wild screams and blaring
guitar of Zeppelin’s yesteryear have
passed into the possession of
younger bands.

N.W.A., which stands for Niggaz
Wit’ Attitude, scored a hit in 1988
with “Straight Outta Compton.”
The album’s foul-mouthed,
hardcore themes knocked softer rap
off the charts and sold more than 2
million copies, despite lack of radio
play.
N.W. A’s follow-up record, 199 l’s
“Niggaz4Life,” sold 954,000 copies
in its first weeks of release to become
the first hardcore rap album to hit No.
1 on the charts.
N.W.A. later broke up amidst ar
tistic and money disputes but proved
hugely influential. Ice Cube and Dr.
Dre went on to successful solo ca
reers.
“As long as you got gangstas and
people going through all this shit, the
music will be around,” Wright said in
1994. Wright also had a solo album,
1993’s “It’s On (Dr. Dre) 187um
Killa.”
Wright and Tomika Wood married
recently. The couple has a 1 -year-old
son, Dominick, the youngest of his
children. Both Wood and the son tested
negative for the AIDS virus, Wright
said.
