Derek was the son of legendary Chicago violin virtuoso Johnny Frigo. He rose to fame in his own right as the lead guitarist of Enuff Z�nuff on their first three major label albums. During his time with the band, he was praised for his distinct tremolo infused guitar solos. He left Enuff Z�nuff in 1992 and played in a number of groups since, he latest projected included Los Angeles based rock band Logan�s Heroes and playing with punk icon Texas Terri. 

Last year, Frigo reunited with Enuff Z�nuff frontman Donnie Vie and original drummer Vik Fox for a couple of Los Angeles area shows. There was talk of an Enuff Z�nuff reunion tour later this year. Derek joined Donnie Vie in his home studio a few weeks ago and laid down tracks for the new Enuff Z�nuff CD.

[Having personally known Derek this news hits extremely hard. The world lost an exceptional person and gifted musician. On behalf of everyone here at antiMUSIC, I wish to extend condolences to Derek's family and friends. We will never forget Derek, the man or his music. - Keavin]
