Rating: - Cinderella - 'Once Upon A...' (Mercury)
A so-so fifteen track compilation that's aimed toward the completists. Here you get tunes from their first four(4) CD's, 'Night Songs'('86), 'Long Cold Winter'('88), 'Heartbreak Station'('90)- the band's first sign of their downfall and the tolerable 'Still Climbing' ('94). To cap it all off, there's a decent Janis Joplin cover of "Move Over". A super-low priced CD, that would be good to get at the used price.
Rating: - Not needed for true fans
There's nothing wrong with this CD, per se. It does include Cinderella's best songs from the 80's & 90's. But I would think that those who like this group would have all these songs already. It's good to get a feel for them if one doesn't have their original releases. But there's no reason to buy this if you have their other CD's.
Rating: - True Talent - Great Band
Cinderella definitely had the hair, but to put them in the category with the other "hair bands" isn't right. Just listen to the music and you'll see that they aren't your garden variety rock band.

I defy anyone to listen to the piano and strings in Don't Know What You Got... and not be blown away. Tom Kiefer has unbelievable talent in the ... Read More
Rating: - The Best Blue Hair Band of the 80's(No, Really!)
"Cinderella" is usually laughed off as "one of those silly, talentless hairbands" of the 80's. Don't count them out just yet. Sure, they didn't have as much success as Bon Jovi or Def Leppard, but Cinderella stuck out when other bands were trying to all sound alike. They might have gotten a little too bluesy for mainstream hairband fans near the end, but "Heartbreak Station" gave these guys some credit as a legitimate rock n' roll band. Besides, Led Zeppelin, who ... Read More
Rating: - This is the Junk Grunge Killed?
That may be true grunge did bring an end to bands like Cinderella, Dokken et al...but what did those losers bring us the crap of stone temple pissants, the musing of garage loser Kurt "why did i marry a skank" cobain and the rest look what they brough to the party they are the reason we got stuck with Brittany spears and the whole n-sync generation....bring back the hair metal and flush the grunge...
