About

It’s hard to fault Cinderella for being anything other than a band truly in love with rock ’n’ roll. That it was hair metal that made them famous is beside the point. Timing is everything in life. But hard rock doesn’t get much better than The Faces–meets–AD/DC of “The Last Mile” and “Heartbreak Station,” two songs that amped up the ’70s rock aesthetic in ways only surpassed by The Black Crowes. And listen closely between the riffs on this best-of, and you’ll detect singer Tom Keifer’s love of gospel (“Coming Home”), Memphis (“Shelter Me”), and Janis Joplin (their cover of “Move Over”).
