BTW - I just heard a single from Tom Keifer's new solo album. It is very, Very good. It sounds a little like Cindy's old style, but w/a heavy dose of the Black Crowes (can't go wrong there).

NO to Cinderella's induction. Similar to many bands. Had a great opening CD with Night Songs. Somebody Save Me & Nobody's Fool. They were great hits. With the success,they went back to their bluesy roots with Long Cold Winter.Got pushed back to summer.Like the song Coming Home & Don't Know What You Got.

Soon,Nirvana & Pearl Jam arrived & Cinderella's popularity as well as many bands of the metal variety got pushed into the back closet.

These guys were outstanding musicians. Can't say they were very innovative since many groups did metal/blues before them. KING

Cinderella should definitely be in the hall of fame. Their bluesy rock sound and Tom Keifer's vocals made them one of the greatest 80's rock bands. Tom Keifer is such a talented musician and songwriter - his solo album is brilliant and you can hear strains of Cinderella in his songs. Songs like Nobody's Fool, Gypsy Road, Shelter Me, Don't Know What You've Got and Heartbreak Station amongst others all deserve to recognised. This multi talented band deserve their slot!

Just another hair metal band. I enjoy their music, but I can't see them getting into the Hall any time soon.

Posted by Andrew on Tuesday, 09/16/2014 @ 19:59pm

By far, the most bluesey rock band of that era and only went glam because that was the thing to do back then. Tom Keifer has one of the greatest voices in Rock n Roll next to Mick Jagger. Parylized vocal chord shut them/him down for over 20 years. Now he's back with a kick ass solo album. 7 top 30's and millions of records sold. HALL OF FAMERS!

Should have at least one essential song.

Posted by Brian on Tuesday, 10/18/2016 @ 23:38pm

I'll be blunt. Cinderella should NOT be in the hall, but the lead singer Tom Keifer should be in. I enjoyed his solo songs more than when he was in the band. Songs like DEATH OF ME and A DIFFERENT LIGHT show his versatility. The first song is reminiscent of the hair band era while the second song is country pop. Both are nice songs that deserve more attention. He has plenty of other solid solo songs.

Please put Cinderella in the rrhof. They totally deserve it. They worked their asses off and played their heart out.

These are good, quality guys that deserve that.

Had there not been a dearth of material after 1994 who knows what their catalog would've been like but since there was...not substantial enough. Though I think the hairspray comments miss the point. The same defense could be said for almost any band of that era. It's not like Cinderella was considered miles above everyone else (Winger was though and ironically are also one of the most derided in the genre) and no band's music can be summed up with the word "hairspray". If Cinderella or any other band are out of consideration just because of image then that's shallowness on the part of the Hall.

Cinderella was one of the most underrated bands of the 80s.

Posted by steff on Wednesday, 12/23/2020 @ 09:47am

Deserves to be in. Scored some hits. Cool hair (ik some of u dont like cool hair but wahtev) I dont listen to cinderella but they were around long enough, induct before they are forgotten.

The most fun I ever had in the audience was when I went to an indoor Cinderella Concert in the 80s. Those Glam Rock girls at the show were HOT! These guys perfected Glam Rock with gritty powerful vocals , hard driving music and stage presence , what a party driving those girls crazy with the music and lyrics , song writing was perfect. . Cinderella help make the 80s the great decade it was .If there is a category for Glam rock these guys should be inducted.

Posted by Glenn Bentley on Thursday, 06/3/2021 @ 17:18pm

Not a glam band they were solid blues rock and totally deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. Esp Tom Keifer one of my all time favorites. He's still rocking it too in spite of all his health issues he never gave up. He deserves a spot-imo the whole band does!

Posted by Sara on Sunday, 06/6/2021 @ 19:28pm

The Cinderella concert I went to the girls were wearing satin , you don't see that at a blues concert,

Posted by Glenn on Friday, 06/11/2021 @ 18:16pm

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE RICK GROUP CINDERELLA HASN'T MADE INTO THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME YET.THEY WERE AWESOME TOGETHER AND SHOULD BE IN TGE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME .TIM KEIFER ALONE SHOULD BE IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME FIR HIS INCREDIBLE SONGS ,VICALS AND GUITAR PLAYING .PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN NOW !!,THANK YOU ,SINCERELY A DIE HARD CINDERELLA / TOM KEIFER FAN.

Wow, two members in one day.

Rest in Peace Jeff LaBar (guitarist), 1963-2021 and Gary Corbett (touring keyboardist), 1959?-2021.

Posted by Joe on Friday, 07/16/2021 @ 02:06am

Cinderella was the best 80s band. Tom keifer did it all, vocals, instruments and song writing. His solo efforts are great. They deserve to be in the rock hall of fame based on talent. It is not a beauty contest event looks shouldn't play a p grrr art, just talent and the had it.

Posted by Marylou on Thursday, 09/30/2021 @ 14:10pm

Love Tom Keifer why on earth isn't he in the Hall of Fame? Loved Cinderella too but Tom is amazing in his solo career as well. Just listen to 'Ask Me Yesterday' and read all that man has gone thru he has earned his spot for sure!

Posted by Sara on Thursday, 10/28/2021 @ 06:15am

Most underappreciated rock group of all time. Only group I still crank my stereo up for when I hear the song intro. And if Dolly Parton can get inducted to the RRHOF then Cinderella definitely should be in.

Posted by Robert McDonald on Saturday, 11/4/2023 @ 12:31pm

Cinderella/Tom Keifer absolutely belong in the RRHOF! Are you kidding me? They were one of the best,most iconic 80s glam rock bands! They proved to be way more than just a "hairband" album after album, these guys are super talented. Some of their best songs were ones never even played on radio. I can listen to any of their music right now 35 years later & its still on my all time best list! I'd definitely say they're better than half the crap hall of fame has inducted to date. Id love to know just who makes these decisions ?

Posted by Della Wicks on Saturday, 05/18/2024 @ 05:07am

Tom Keifer was a legend before he started! He has more talent in his toe than 3/4ths of them out there. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. He actually worked for IT & EARNED IT! It wasn't fame, money, etc., it has always been about the MUSIC FOR TOM.

Why are they insisting on not putting certain artists like Cinderella the band kixl, whitesnake I mean come on there's so many great bands that have been eligible and they're putting in pop stars and rap stars and everybody else once again people it's the rock and roll Hall of Fame get yours stuff together.

Posted by Bobbi on Monday, 07/14/2025 @ 04:41am

I Really think the Rock and Roll group, Cinderella, should be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.Most and have either separated or had tragedy happen and have still been inducted. Tom Keifer is no different. Has had 7 throat surgeries and had other hardships with lawsuits and whatever, but They still deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.They are Rock Icons ,and I pray that it will happen very soon.
