After featuring here CINDERELLA ‘Unreleased Tapes 1983-85’ a few days ago, now we have in exclusive “Unreleased Tapes 83-85 PART II“, also released on CD by San Marino based bootleg label Loudworks.
While ‘Part I’ included songs that later ended into Cinderella’s major label debut ‘Night Songs’ – all the songs into this ”PART II” are unreleased. And there’s some pretty awesome tunes that rock hard. We even find the funny commercial Cinderella recorded in 1983 for a hot dog shop TV ad!
Apart from singer, songwriter & guitarist Tom Keifer and bassist Eric Brittingham, the initial line-up recording these demos included guitarist Michael Kelly Smith and drummer Tony Destra. In 1985, both Kelly Smith and Destra left to form Britny Fox.
This amazing compilation features 17 tracks, showcasing a band hungry for recognition, raw US hard rock at street level. Sound quality is much better than some cuts floating the internet or YouTube.
“Unreleased Tapes 83-85 PART II” is the ultimate Cinderella rarities album, a collector’s piece now being sold at auction sites for over $200.
