Cinderella was very consistent and never had a lull period or a bad release. They were one of the best 80s hard rock bands out there and there were a ton back then so competition was steep.

Still Climbing is so underrated. “The Road’s Still Long” is easily one of their best songs.

Nobody’s Fool is still my favorite song. I love the first two albums which is all I own. Cinderella are one of the best hard rock bands of that era.

Pete man I bet your a cool dude to hang with. You seem genuine and friendly and all your guest are cool too. Watch this everyday cause you relate to my music. Thanks

Seriously one of the most underrated bands in the history of underrated bands. 4. Night Songs (still amazing, but they hadn't quite found their identity yet) 3. Still Climbing 2. Long, Cold Winter 1. Heartbreak Station (My Top 2 are more or less interchangeable, but I think this album just sounds a bit more natural and heartfelt)

Saw them in '87 opening for David Lee Roth. Then again in 2000 as the headliner with Firehouse, Quiet Riot and Ratt. I've seen Keifer solo about three times. The guy always brings it.

Deep track -Through The Rain from Still Climbing is stellar power ballad and perhaps the most underrated Cinderella song.

Tom Keifer's last 2 solo albums are great especially the last one, Rise which is my favourite album of 2019.

Thank you so much Pete, I knew you would like Cinderella if you gave them a chance!

I saw Cinderella open for Judas Priest on the Ram it Down tour. They were a really great opening act! Long Cold Winter is an epic album. 😎

I never get tired listening to Nobody's Fool. An exceptional song!

1 - Long Cold Winter 2 - Still Climbing (So underrated!) 3 - Night Songs 4 - Heartbreak Station

Solid Blues/Hard Rock Band. My Ranking: 1- Long Cold Winter 2- Night Songs 3- Heartbreak Station 4- Still Climbing HM: Tom Keifer - The Way Life Goes

Cinderella's debut is great, great metal guitar tone, essential glam metal. The albums after bluesy hard rock

I am also one of those that listened to the first album but never really gave them a chance due to their look. However, after watching this, will give the rest of their offerings a chance. That's kinda why I watch your channel, it opens me up to many different types of music I would have never listened to if not for you and your guests. Thanks Pete!

I loved Cinderella back in the ‘80s right up to today. I saw them live in concert many times back then and just saw Tom Keifer in concert last year. He is incredible live! Cinderella and Tom Keifer deserve so much more credit for their amazing talent than they have ever been given.

If there is ANY band that was more unfairly tossed to the side as just another glam band than Cinderella, then I have yet to hear of them. They’re amazing. And much more blues based than ANY other glam band. As opposed to most of the other glam bands who were just influenced by blues and had a couple blues songs, blues was actually a CORE element of theirs. I can’t really think of any other glam bands who’s core sound was blues. They were like Aerosmith and Zeppelin in terms of blues being a core element of the music, not just an influence

This guy and Martin Popoff are my favorite guests on this channel !

My favorite Cinderella studio albums are : 1. Night Songs 2. Long Cold Winter 3. Heartbreak Station 4. Climbing Pole I have a limited addition of Heartbreak station with the CD in a Mini guitar case!! Thank you guys for your ranking of The studio albums of Cinderella!!🎼🎤🎸🎵🥁

For fans of Cinderella, I strongly recommend Great White's Psycho City(1992) and Can't Get There From Here (1999) albums. They have a very similar American Blues/Hard Rock style👍

Excellent show Pete! Love Cinderella!

1. Night Songs 2. Long Cold Winter 3. Still Climbing 4. Heartbreak Station Great underrated AC/DC-style Blues Metal band.

PETE/ I actually agree. I was going to throw Tom KIEFER s vocals on my list when you did that tremendous great vocalist list. Unique Sound/ distinct !!

Watched this again today - got Cinderella playing in my head, ear candy, brilliant group - so, so misunderstood. Amazing fun and this video says it all.

BTW, For anybody that hasn't checked out the Tom Keifer solo albums, I highly recommend both. He doesn't change to something you wouldn't like. If you liked Cinderella then you'll more than likely enjoy these.

1. Long Cold Winter 2. Heartbreak Station 3. Night Songs 4. Still Climbing Great episode👍

Oooohhh GOD! Pere & Steve THX for this show! I think Cinderella is very underratedband. On Bad seamstress blues with Cozy on drums amazing!!!!!!

So happy to see this band get it's day...Great rankings! 1. Night Songs 2. Long Cold Winter 3. Still Climbing 4. Heartbreak Station I'm a bigger fan of the heavier, darker (Bluesierr? ) stuff.

I was so psyched to see you did this ranking! Cinderella are grossly underrated. Even their hit songs have that bluesy-stonsey feel. Gypsy Rose is still my favourite song of theirs. Not a bad album in their discography really.

The first time I ever heard Cinderella was in late summer 1986. The song was "Shake Me". . . I honestly thought it was AC/DC doing a sequel song to "You Shook Me All Night Long" . . . a few months later They came to my town opening for David Lee Roth on the "Eat 'Em and Smile Tour"

They came to my little ol' East Texas hometown with White Lion & Tangier in 1988 -- among of my favorite local concert experiences.

Night songs my fav

Excellent show, great guest.

So Happy to see a Cinderella ranking on Sea of Tranquility. A band that was wrongfully labeled as a Hair Metal band. And never got the respect they deserved. They were a Blues Rock band.

Glad to see some love for Cinderella, well done Pete, an over used word underrated, but really does apply here. Long Cold Winter, my favourite, especially the title track, so much emotion in that track , it hurts.

Great review Pete Cinderella Rocks🤘🏼🤘🏼

Good show again guys. Hey Steve, talking of great hard rock blues infused band like Cinderella, did you happen to mention the mighty Thunder to Pete? Also, digging the Eden's Curse t-shirt 👍

Heartbreak Station has always been my favorite but this makes me want to listen to them all again.

hard to find the words is a tribute to my Mom! it makes me cry my eyes out everytime!

Tom Keifer's latest album RISE is a MUST HAVE! AWESOME raw blues hard dark rock! I rarely try to push my opinion onto other people, but I feel like a lot of people are gonna miss this one and IT'S SOOOOO GREAT!

I saw them in a club in Boston in the 90's and they opened the show with Push Push enough said.......

Great Eden's Curse shirt there Steven! Such an underrated band, and a great live act who are much missed. My Cinderella ranking: 1) Long Cold Winter 2) Night Songs 3) Heartbreak Station 4) Still Climbing All four are great though!

Cool. Cinderella, Great White and Tesla were my favourite bands from that era. Nice that you mentioned them all together.

I liked this video slot. And I like how you and this guy work together. Hope to see more videos with you and him

CINDERELLA/ great 80s Memories!!👍💯

I was all in on Kiss, Metallica, Megadeth Maiden and Crüe then came Cinderella's Long Cold Winter and Gypsy Road! So cool more people think they rocked! Bad Seamstress/Falling apart is RAD🤘

Cinderella is one of those acts I thought should have been bigger but never made it massively: no ten million sellers. 4. Long Cold Winter 3. Heartbreak Station 2. Still Climbing 1. Night Song

Great to see Steven Reid back on the show. Hope you guys will do a show on Thunder as well. They are a Blues/Heavy Rock band from UK & they still continue to release killer albums. David Coverdale himself suggested Thunder to open up Donington 1990 which was headlined by Whitesnake. Killer Band 🤘

I was in my 20s in Northeast Philly in the mid 80s, and the club scene was ridiculous with Talented bands, that you could see over and over, Cinderella, Britney Fox, Heavens Edge, Metal Wolf, Surrender Dorothy, Tangier, and others less metally, like the Hooters, Bon Jovi and the A's . We were spoiled by the riches of the talented musicians. There were GREAT bands that couldnt make it, like the Dead End Kids, who were, maybe, the best of them all. What a time it was.

Cinderella? You just earned my subscription Sir.

Who love to see a ranking Testament albums

The more things change,and fallen apart at the seams,are so underated. Robp

Only own the first 2 albums and I do enjoy listening to them from time to time. Saw them on the Long Cold Winter tour at Hammersmith Odeon (as it used to be called) in London and they were a terrific live band, at least on that show.

i thought it wild at first that Reid had the cassette bootleg of the show he was at but then i remember finding several clips from the last concert i saw before Rona in Houston (Alice Cooper/Halestorm/Motionless in White) on KZfaq

Love the more melodic (MHR) direction Pete is heading in 🙌🏻♥️🎸

They never had a bad album but my most listened-to is "Live At The Key Club", Tom sounds amazing, the band was musically tight and the acoustic arrangements in the middle were spot-on - Coming Home is a highlight.

Good to hear a great accent as a fellow jock I love Cinderella too , Poison etc etc plus loved thrash too . Didn’t know about still climbing so will just buy it lol , long cold winter, night songs and heartbreak in that order , long cold is one of my favourite albums ever

1) Night Songs 2) Long Cold Winter 3) Heartbreak Station 4) Still Climbing I loved those first two. That’s when I was really into the band. I lost interest for awhile, then came back to the two later releases. Solid band. Wish they could have given us more material.

Hi Pete, I really enjoy and apreciate your programs, positive vibe, fantastic subject, amazing guest and interest bands. I was eighties kid rock fan but different like other in Venezuela as you know different culture and latin hot music. Nevertheless always admire rock music. If you have any interest of Venezuelan heavy bands or rock prog symph I can show you a preety good ones. Best wishes and forgive me my poor english grammar. Long live rock n roll

Steve is one of my favourites

Heartbreak Station is my favourite, I always thought the band were heading to this. I still listen to it to this day, and behold, it's getting a blue vinyl reissue in March which I have pre-ordered 💙

My absolute favorite band from the 80’s, I was 16 when Night Songs came out, so yeah, Cinderella was my soundtrack. I’ve always ranked Night Songs on my list of best albums, but hell all 4 are great and I still go back to them and haven’t changed my mind in 34 years. I wish they would record again but it’ll most likely never happen. Very unfortunate for this long time fan.

Pete, Now you know how some of us feel discovering a band you discuss on your channel, lol. Here are my rankings: 1. Long Cold Winter 2. Heartbreak Station 3. Still Climbing 4. Night Songs If I could make a request I’d love to ranking the albums of Stryper.

Man I miss fun music what these guys brought one of my favorite bands.

1. Heartbreak Station 2. Still Climbing 3. Long Cold Winter 4. Night Songs Loved this band from the start and so underrated. "Blood From a Stone" is a fantastic rock song.

Hard to make a ranking from this band. All of the four are excellent an even the fourth in my ranking is quite better than other albums from that time... 1- Long cold winter 2- Heartbreak station 3- Night songs 4- Stil climbing Pete, I'd like you to rank Thunder's discography, not a band too differet from Cinderella and Great White. I'm quite sure they're a band highly appreciated by Steve as well

Always liked this band saw them as the American version of Nazareth.

Thanks guys I loved this edition. I was at the two Scottish gigs Steven mentions. The Edinburgh gig was really good. But if anything he undersold the Livingston gig THAT'S how good it was. Still got the tee shirt and yay, still fits 🤣 Steven, my journey home was boring in comparison..... I think. There was drink involved.

Mr. Pete I've been a subscriber for almost one year now and I've always thoroughly enjoyed your presence on the internet and on this channel a lot of viewers including myself find you a comforting it's not reassuring person in the area of hard rock and heavy metal and really appreciate your presence how ever I'm beginning to see the point in a lot of your subscribers constantly emailing you were complaints about this irritating regularity all of a the sudden with the so-called guest get me wrong out of your own mouth you said several months ago to people that you have a family and a job and that is understandable but Mr Pete please realize it when you took on this responsibility of being an internet cable channel hosts is responsibility also and I feel that you are letting down myself and others relying on guest host we click and subscribe to your channel myself included it is with the intention of helping you and your channel not all these guests I understand that occasionally it is normal to have on s guests like mr. Martin pop off and maybe and equally distinguished like mr. Samm Dunn is what keeps Channel interesting but please bear in mind your first responsibility is towards your viewers all of us including myself would like to hear your perspective and opinion on albums are artists at least 90% of the time and having all these guest hosts are letting your viewers down I hope you realize this before it's too late and you start losing subscribers for this reason stay safe and careful Respectfully yours Karen

You guys got me to buy their Best Of after watching the video!!! I guess I only knew the Seamstress and Gypsy Road songs! :)

A fan since 1986. Keifer always reminder me of Brian Johnson. Saw them live twice back in the 80s, just regret not seeing them in a small club a few years ago. Nothing too controversial with my list actually: 1. Long Cold Winter (a great bluesy shift from the debut IMO) 2. Night Songs (still a very close 2nd!) 3. Heartbreak Station (I actually like this one more today) 4. Still Climbing (a good album, but a bigger gap compared to #3)

I was just like Pete - never had any interest in Cinderella, based on impressions of their album covers. But a few years ago I listened to Heartbreak Station for the heck of it. Wow, fantastic hard rock album. I like every song.

I got two Cinderella albums on cassette tape one is night songs and the other one is long cold winter. 😀👍🤘🎸

Great video Pete I would rank them the same way as you another band that was lumped in the hair metal category was skid row which I never thought was a part of that

1) Night Songs 2) Long Cold Winter 3) Still Climbing 4) Heartbreak Station In my opinion :)

I heard Pete mention Faster Pussycat in a kind of throwaway manner, but their second album, Wake me when it's Over, is a very good blues rock album in the vein of the Stones, Aerosmith etc, as is their third. Anyway... I only have the first two Cinders albums, and quite frankly I can hardly put a cigarette paper between them.

Great show guys! Cinderella, a very under-rated band, certainly here in the UK. Agree with what you both say as regards the bands influences being The Faces, Humble Pie, The Stones and Aerosmith, which is why I rated them so highly. Nice mention from Steven for the old bootleg tapes. For a large part of the 80s I taped bands and sold them at Record Fairs here in the UK, using the good ol' Sony Pro Walkman. Happy Days! Looking forward to listening to Fall Fest tomorrow! Here's my Top 4 (I'll have to give Tom Keifer's two solo albums a listen) 1/NIGHT SONGS 2/LONG COLD WINTER 3/STILL CLIMBING 4/HEARTBREAK STATION

Happy to hear you've come around to Cinderella Pete. Here's how I'd rank them (excluding Still Climbing, which I haven't heard much of): 3 - Night Songs (some very great moments and songs - the moody Nobody's Fool still levels me - but they hadn't yet found their bluesy swagger and too much of side B is by-the-numbers glam metal) 2 - Heartbreak Station (I loved how they really went for it and took chances on this record, trying out different genres - unflinching country rock, funk and soul tracks) 1 - Long Cold Winter (wore this cassette out badly as any other. A real formative recording from my teenage years. Very catchy singles and their strongest output front to back)

Jody Cortez also played drums on "Burns Like A Star" by Stone Fury. A great overlooked album from the 80s.

Easy one (with favourite tracks): 1. Long Cold Winter (Fallin' apart at the seams, Don't know what you've got...) 2. Heartbreak Station (Dead Man's Road, Heartbreak Station) 3. Night Songs (Nobody's fool. Somebody save me) 4. Still Climbing (Bad Attitude Shuffle, Still Climbing)

Awesome episode! And my list will be just like Pete's as well. I like all 4, but I too prefer them in order. I do have to admit that it took me awhile to adapt to the more bluesy sound after such a kick ass rocking debut, but I adapted and love Long Cold Winter. Thankfully that was the 2nd release though because the 3rd album may have pushed me away by how much more bluesy they went. So it worked out alright. But I do wish they would have given us another album like the debut and then did the next 3. But, I'm good with what we got.

Yes yes yes!! Great band.

Pete might be interested to know that Cozy Powell played on Long Cold Winter, if I'm not wrong.

I was lucky enough to see Cinderella at Donington in 1987. They rocked and played Gypsy Road before it was even released. A cool rocking band. It was a wet and windy day, but they rocked. Dio was magnificent as were Anthrax, Metallica (whatever anyone says) and to be fair Bon Jovi did a good job, especially with Bruce, Dee and Paul joining them for an encore. Great days.

Night Songs is my favorite album by them and still a top 10 album of all time for me. Saw them live and they were awesome!

Great review. I have been a Cinderella fan ever since the beginning and was fortunate to catch them in Knoxville on the LCW tour with Bulletboys and Winger opening. As far as the ranking I'm with you Pete except I would reverse your 3 & 4, as I have always felt that Heartbreak Station is their weakest album and was too much of a departure from the initial sound that hooked me. I am also a huge fan of Tom Keifer's solo albums...especially Rise which feels like a continuation of Still Climbing. So glad you finally gave them a chance all these years later and found that they were more than just their glam look.

My favorite Cinderella album: Long Cold Winter....although, I always preferred the sound of GreatWhite & Kix more. Unfortunatley all these groups got labeled as Glam or Hair Metal-ish....Other band's that suffered from this label,that I find really solid - Tesla,Tangier....the list goes on & on.

I thought a few singles were ok, but I saw them with Ratt and Quiet Riot back in 2007 in Dallas. That gig made me a fan. I saw them in 2008 with Poison. Tolerated Poison for Cinderella. They were even better the second time I’ve seen them. I’d love to see them again

when they first came out, i lumped then into the glam, hair spray Poison type bands. My friend called them Cinderfella!...but i kept hearing Nobodys Fool on the radio. I took a chance on the glammy looking album cover, and was impressed!! Hard Rockin Bluesy rock Metal. I dug the vocals and guitar riffs. Love that first album. Never did see them live, back in the day

Pete,I love your Triumph shirt!

glad you cam to your senses on Cinderella Pete? yeah i always hated the hair band badge laid on a lot of the groups cause these guys were totally hard rockin' blues based rock and did it well! awesome you mentioned Great White too, one of my favs of all time and Jack and Mark kicked ass as well as anyone back in the day when it came to blues based hard rock, AND both bands were always great live-always!! i never seen a bad show from either and seen many. rock on brother Pete!! \m/ \m/

Great band they rocked donington in the early 80,s

Not sure which I liked more, you guys talking about the underrated Cinderella, or Pete wearing the underrated Triumph shirt (Allied Forces is one of the best albums of all time)

My ranking : 4. Still Climbing 3. Heartbreak Station 2. Night Songs 1. Long Cold Winter

Man oh man!! Gotta admit that I never would have imagined Pete being a fan of Cinderella. I love their music!! Back in the day I was all in with all this bands, you know: Motley Crue, Poison, Bon Jovi, Warrant, Slaughter, White Lion, Great White, Kingdom Come, Slaughter, Firehouse, Vixen, L.A. Guns, Ratt, Winger, Tesla, etc. etc. I actually hated how they looked, but loved the music they were putting out. Cinderella in particular, cause I have always thought that they rocked the hardest and Tom Kiefer's voice was so distinctive. Long Cold Winter is my favorite album, second is Night Songs, and then Heartbreak Station, it grew on me many years after because the same thing that happened to Steven happened to me, I didn't get it at first because I found it too different from what they had done in the previous album. But now, yeah, it rocks big time. I will give more love to the last album because it kind of got lost in the shuffle for me. Hey Pete, speaking of converting, I have to share with you the fact that, although I still have my reservations towards black metal, today I decided to listen to Venom's first two albums and got properly kicked in the ass, awesome music really (have you done a show on Venom?)... but getting back on the subject matter of this episode, any chance of seeing a ranking of Great White or Kingdom Come?

Cinderella's one of my all-time favorite band!! My ranking is 4- Still Climbing 3- Heartbreak Station 2- Night Songs 1- Long Cold Winter and i LOVE the album cover too.

Now I have to go check out Heartbreak station.

My favorite Cinderella album (they all are good) has always been "Long Cold Winter". I bought it, when it came out. And i'm not tired yet.

Nice review of a good underrated band who I wish had made more albums back in the day. Any chance that you might review Great White, who are another good hard rock-blues band from that era?

Was at that gig in Edinburgh
