Cinderella - Long Cold Winter (1988)

Country: U.S.A.
Genre: Glam Metal
Label Number: 834 612-2

© 1988 Mercury Records
AllMusic Review by Steve Huey
Long Cold Winter is a transition album for Cinderella, mixing pop-metal tunes with better hooks than those on Night Songs with a newfound penchant for gritty blues-rock à la the Stones or Aerosmith. The ballads -- the grandiose "Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)" and the excellent, lower-key "Coming Home" -- are what made the album Cinderella's most commercially successful, but the effective combination of pop hooks and tough, swaggering rock & roll on songs like "Gypsy Road" and "Fallin' Apart at the Seams" prevents the album from becoming simply a vehicle for hit singles and keeps it interesting. Not all of the songs are memorable, but most of them are.

    2. The links have been updated. I'll give you a pass this one time and only this one time.

      During off-hours, the bot is turned off - mostly. Comments and requests for updates are not published but are kept on record. When the bot is turned back on, it sends us the posts that need to be updated. Even if you don't see your comment or your request published, that doesn't mean we don't see it. You just have to wait until the bot comes back online. This process happens everyday at midnight, 12 a.m. and ends at mid-day, 12 p.m.

      Just relax and be patient next time.
