Cinderella

In Concert

Dead Line

It always brings me great pleasure to get a hold of live concert footage from those metal artists who once ruled the world during the 1980’s hey day of rock supremacy. Call me nostalgic if you must, but discovering lost treasures such as the recently released DVD CinderellaIn Concert is, in my book, worth ten videos of anything new on the market. These guys were professional showmen at their absolute best and offered fans a genuine opportunity to escape the dismal constraints of everyday life and thoroughly indulge themselves in the authentic understanding of a true Rock N’ Roll concert experience. The visual representation of Cinderella’s performance matched equally the high energy impact of their blues-rock inspired music, and to this day they remain one of the most remembered heavyweights of their era.

Professionally shot during the band’s Heartbreak Station tour in 1991, Cinderella performed a staggering no-holds-barred extravaganza that captures the band at their very best. For fans this presentation marks a pinnacle point in the history of rock and reminds all of us exactly why we loved this period of time so insatiably. Covering songs from all three of their full-length LPs up to this point the guys delivered a full-blown look into the art and passion of their music. From a production standpoint, this DVD is not the picture perfect ensemble that most would hope for, but remember, it was shot more than a decade ago. Still, the sound does tend to come across as a little thin and the lighting, in conjunction with the camera angles, sometimes overexpose the band. Some may find the constant background noise of the crowd to be an annoyance, but it does add to the live feel of the overall package. Nevertheless, this is a very cool video to own and fans of Cinderella will be appreciative that we finally have a live show from the guys after all these years.

CinderellaIn Concert is presented in both 5.1 Surround Sound and 2.1 Stereo. Additional features include a musical slide show. Song favorites include “Gypsy Road”, “Night Songs”, “Shake Me”, “”Coming Home”, “Don’t Know What You Got (Til It’s Gone)” and “Shelter Me” The running time is approx. 95 minutes.
