Chordplay - The Chords of Cinderella

[@martinlahaie6012]

Wow! Being 52 yo...those were the days....what a voice Keifer had... Man you are so prolific... How about a great beginner lesson of slide guitar featuring the bad boy himself...George Thorogood and the Destroyers ? Greetings from Québec !

[@crisprtalk6963]

OK. Here's the deal.....Tom Keifer's voice is and was amazing. First time I heard him I was floored! Instantly recognizable. Then Long Cold Winter came out! Holy hit factory Batman!! That album was amazing!!I played it all the time. I have never seen them live.. I hope Tom Keifer comes down south so I can see him play. LOVE CINDERELLA!!!

[@danielsherwood3460]

He lives in Nashville now. Stop by and see him.

[@daihardtrying9796]

Don’t normally comment on KZbin videos but have to say your videos are great! You honestly deserve so many more subs, love some Cinderella and how Tom mixed the slide playing in with rock

[@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo]

Love Cinderella. Night Songs didn't have a single bad tune on it.

[@mattnunnelly6321]

Agreed. It rocks so hard.

[@timothyholmes4588]

classic album.

[@isaiahmarquez9717]

Night Songs is a tremendous album. 🤙🏼

[@purplepieman1600]

Huge fan of Cinderella and Late Night Lessons... especially chordplay!! Thanks man!!

[@Ions11]

Man I had no idea that original version of 'Shake Me' even existed. Cinderella was the first concert I went to, opening for Bon Jovi in Toronto. I'll never forget seeing Tom Keifer catch that guitar thrown by his tech from the side of the stage to the middle of the stage and hit the opening chords of 'Once Around the Ride' without missing a beat. That blew my mind as a kid! - :)

[@nateg7973]

Cinderella so underrated!!! Good to see them getting some Love!! All 4 of their albums ROCKED!! Night Songs one of the greatest Albums in rock history!! Thank You for the episode.

[@johnboleyjr.1698]

I have always loved Cinderella. Their Bluesy Raunch has always appealed to me. Tom Keifer is still kickin' ass to this day. Long Cold Winter, both the album and the song, will forever hold a very special place in my life.

[@Scottocaster6668]

B🐓!! OMG YOU READ MY MIND, I SWEAR TO GOD!!!! I'm on a Cinderella Quarantine kick for 2 weeks now. YESTERDAY I almost requested them, but got sidetracked. Way to go Man👍👍👍👍

[@chrispilmoor4403]

Thankyou , love Cinderella and all your late night lessons. All the best from the uk.

[@johnhoward2687]

Awesome lesson!!! I love Cinderella. Had a button on my jeans jacket. Lol. That album is on my playlist. I saw them 3 times. I agree, the first 2 albums were the best. Thanks Dave.

[@PassporttotheParks]

Thank you for giving some love to my all time favorite band! Tom Keifer, genius....nuff said!

[@mrnomad55]

supper glad you did this lesson on Cinderella David. thanks so much

[@danielsherwood3460]

I used to go see these guys play at The Empire Rock Room in the mid 80's. Probably saw them a dozen times. They're phenomenal live. Jeff Lebar was already in the group, but Fred Coury wasn't in the band until they got signed. They had several drummers before him. One went to play with Britney Fox, but was sadly killed in a car accident. The other, their best imo, is a lawyer and plays in a jazz band. Loved that time of my life.

[@drockny]

David was so hoping when I first saw you posted a Cinderella chordplay episode you'd play "If You Don't Like It" and of course you delivered. You're the man!

[@tshouse2782]

One of the absolute best bands I've ever seen. Absolutely top notch solid!!

[@raymiemac71]

Absolutely one of the most underrated Bands ever.. Night songs Brilliant.

[@J24777]

Definitely Awesome!! I hope that you are doing More Cinderella!!!!

[@scottwilson6138]

Thank you so much for this Long cold winter was my favourite lps I remember watching a show where Tom gave one of his guitars to a guy who had cancer. He also went over to this fans place and jammed with him Cool dude

[@JuddOakes]

Cinderella rocks I finally got to watched their Moscow Music Peace Festival set and it was awesome

[@Scottocaster6668]

I saw it 3 days ago back to back. The great camera work on "Somebody save me" during Eric and Jeff's 360° guitar toss! The 2 best at it. Great show, thank you KZbin!

[@_vixen_4504]

Finally awesome mate i am such a big fan of Jeff labars and Tom Keifers playing and make another one with nothin for nothin it’s such a killer riff

[@deanbarnes20]

Night Songs is a killer, timeless album! \m/

[@Monkeyneeds]

Cinderella was a truly underrated band. I was lucky to see them live on the Night Songs, Long Cold Winter and Heartbreak Station tours. They were the first band I got into and first concert I attended. RIP Jeff! 🤘🎸🤘

[@jonbigg7385]

Great lesson David.. This brings back memories even prior to when Cinderella hit the scene. If my 55 year old memory serves, drummer Fred Coury grew up in my home town of Johnson City, NY. I remember back around the 82-83 time frame seeing him play in a local bar in Johnson City, although I never knew him personally. Small world.

[@jongibson6522]

Another great video! Love how you play all of these different riffs with ease. You and Rick Beato are my favorite KZbin musicians. Keep it up David!

[@JaakkoTK]

Just great riffs and melodies, and big thanks for you again showing the way, cheers from Finland!

[@bustercrack788]

That was the most fun I have had since in ages . Great lesson m8. Thoroughly enjoyed crashing through that lot , every one was a winner. Completely lifted my spirits during these uncertain times. I might not be doing them justice but you really put a smile on my face with that lesson . Nice one ☝️

[@timothyholmes4588]

Tom kiefer was a hell of a songwriter and guitarist not to mention his amazing vocals. Cinderella is probably my favorite band of the era or any era for that matter. cool lesson 👍🤘

[@rudiger1337]

If you have made a bad video, I haven't seen it. Saw Cinderella open for David Lee Roth in San Diego - 1986. I was hooked.

[@usistdas]

Thank you! I love this group! this is the music of my youth... Very cool!

[@Jhossack11]

Long Cold Winter was my workout album (well CD) back then. Ah, have since moved out of Michigan's UP but Long Cold Winter takes me back. That song "long-Cold-Winter" great intro, great song. Now, you make me wanna go search out Night Songs. Thanks much!

[@Scottocaster6668]

Going to need a pt.2,. The acoustic playings of Cinderella 😉👍

[@justinprizant1980]

unbelievably creative riffs these guys were doing. and you got the touch on all of it!!

[@monsterkxf]

Awesome!! Great band!! You’re making me relive my youth!!! 🤘🤘

[@sacredgodslayer]

Skid Row...I'll just keep asking

[@denismacfarlane255]

Second this.

[@WallyBoots]

Skid Row 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@adriankoski2876]

Love that idea ,great rtyhmns and solos .

[@TheScorpius666]

Definitely this. Most Slave To The Grind songs have interesting chords/riffs like The Threat (Drop D), Slave To The Grind, Monkey Business, Mudkicker. You can add a couple of acoustics demonstrations like Quicksand Jesus and Wasted Time intros/verses. Finally throw something from the first album (18 and Life probably) but the album was rather weak in interesting chords/riffs. From Subhuman Race, well, probably My Enemy.

[@sacredgodslayer]

@@TheScorpius666 Making a Mess surely deserves a spot in chordplay imho Really fun song to play

[@chadmooreofficial]

I agree with you. Their first two records are where it's at.

[@patrickkish6662]

Man, David. You put the BITE in those strings. You're resonating STRONGLY ❤️✊🏼🙏🏼🎸⏳

[@purpledude5526]

Saw Tom Play in October of 2019 In Akron , Ohio. Was awesome. Best song ever is Nothing for Nothing. Its a hidden gem, nobody plays it. It kicks ass

[@coalfacechris1336]

Rare time time I agree with Eddie Trunk. If they'd look like the Black Crowes on the cover of Night Songs, Cinderella would have been deservedly huge. Album of my youth. Thanks Brew!

[@hotdoggravy]

Night songs was the first "heavy" album I owned, I know those songs inside out. Great video, thank you

[@sleggarri]

Great lesson. Still have my band signed Night Songs cassette. Nice guys. Always dug their sound.

[@WallyBoots]

Love Cinderella! This is one of my favorite episodes ever. Thank you for this. Would love to see a follow up they have so many good songs.

[@erniemarable616]

Another excellent "Late night lessons." Thank you..

[@RandyWillcox]

Goin' ONCE a ROUND the RIIIIDE! 🤘🏻 I've entered the Late Night Lessons black hole.

[@mookytc]

Yes Sir! They had a bad wrap as a "hair band". This was one rocking unit. There is a Detroit show from '91 out there on the web that is just excellent. Tom has an incredible vintage gear collections as well. Good stuff and thanks!

[@joeb3083]

Awesome Chordplay Dave. Just saw Tom Kiefer Band live last month 6/22 he still rocks and sounds great even after all his voice troubles. Keep up the good work, been learning a lot. You're one of my favorite You Tube artists, slowly making my way through your whole catalog. I believe you could play the phone book.

[@bghammock]

Cinderella is another band who just has fun songs to play. I absolute LOVED Night Songs .. after I got around to it. I stayed away for a bit mainly due to the album cover like you mentioned LOL but my cousin got me to listen and I was hooked. And speaking of Britny Fox, the main riff to "Long Way To Love" has also always been a favorite.

[@SuperBernardoful]

Oh, that was very cool once again, thnx! Cheers from Switzerland!

[@davidknapp5163]

That poster of Cinderella in the back ground I had signed by the band. Devastated I misplaced it over the years. Great video

[@marcjordan29]

I grew up in Philly..... Back then. There were TONS of bands playing that type of metal.... The empire rock club on the Roosevelt Boulevard..... So many good local artists

[@HeadbangersLocal]

Me too

[@marcjordan29]

@@HeadbangersLocal who do you remember? Lecompt..? Haha. Street talk... Jojo slick.....

[@curtpozzi5527]

Bands like Tangier, The Scream to at least mention.

[@FenderTeleDeluxe]

Me too. Dead End Kids, Heaven’s Edge, Britney Fox, Tangier...list goes on and on for heavy 80’s Philly bands.

[@kevmet84]

As I begin to embark watching this episode, I will say that I had just watched the Motley Crue ChordPlay episode again and noted at one point you mentioned Saxon. Saxon, I'd think would be a great ChordPlay episode, and also even a 3Licks one as well perhaps. But, their understated work is worthy of attention.

[@johncecilia4517]

Great lessons! You always pick great riffs not just the most famous.

[@isMike999]

Night Songs is a badass tune,,....I grew up seeing them dudes every weekend at the Galaxy in Somerdale NJ or in Philly....very glam...Tom was a very quiet laid back dude...

[@courtney2018]

Cinderella will always be one of my favorite bands from that time. There's more songs to do so I vote that you put another Cinderella chordplay together. Would love to see Gypsy Road, The Last Mile, Second Wind. Loved this episode! I was fortunate to see them on the Long Cold Winter Tour with Winger and Bullet Boys opening up for them. Saw them again in the late 90s at a festival in Charlotte and they did an acoustic set. I agree with you, the first two albums were definitely the best of their work. Night Songs was darker and just completely different than Long Cold Winter. I cant really choose a favorite between them. Did you happen to see them at The Moscow Peace Festival? I still have that concert on VHS.

[@kevmet84]

Been meaning to watch this one for a while and would've sooner had I not forgot to add to my watch later list. Nonetheless, now that I've watched it, I say to myself why hadn't I watched it sooner watch list or not? Good one. And Cinderella is one of my favorite hard rock bands of the eighties era to say the least. And, I like the lil' rant about the 'flying guitars' which was something I've seen Keifer do in at least one of the two times I got to see them live.😎🤘

[@woodchuk1]

While these guys may have had the look of hair metal, they were more sophisticated musically than most others of the genre. Taking their whole discography into account, especially from Long Cold Winter onwards, I honestly think they had more in common with AC/DC, The Rolling Stones or Aerosmith than with Poison or Motley Crue. Not that there’s anything wrong with Poison or Motley Crue, I just think these guys kinda got pigeonholed simply because they had the look of hair metal. Tom Keifer has that ‘Brian Johnson meets Janis Joplin” vibe that I really dig, and he’s no slouch as a player. His solo on Don’t Know What You’ve Got ‘Til It’s Gone has been a favorite of mine ever since I was 8 or 9 years old, and I sill love it at 40. Great band!

[@chrisgist3090]

I remember when Cinderella 1st came out. I wasn’t a big fan in the beginning but bought the album (Night Moves) to learn the songs (guitar) because they were getting really popular fast w/the help of MTV & their videos! I really learned to appreciate Tom Keifer’s song writing after a while! We always thought Cinderella was like a mash-up of AC/DC & Aerosmith!😉

[@christyisaacs5220]

Saw them open for Bon Jovi, but the best for me was the Long Cold Winter tour. Great tour. I figured out the whole album. He does launch them, and did so live!!! I wondered the same. Once around the ride is cool. Live Tom and the other guitarists did a bunch of trade off licks and it was great.!!!💕👍

[@richcarpenter824]

Saw them open for Bon Jovi on the Slippery tour and they were great. Their sound was so powerful that night, I would have been fine to skip the headliner.

[@Wyldwulf]

If You Don't Like It was always one of my favorite tracks on Long Cold Winter....I wore out that tape in high school. I have to learn it now. Many of these riffs- especially Push Push have decidedly High & Dry/Pyromania vibe as well.

[@jrtme]

Night Songs Kicks ass. I grew up outside Philly. They were hometown heroes when they got signed. I still think Night Songs is the best album of the 4. I even love the crazy purple cover. 🤘

[@jourdanschermerhorn]

nice commentary saying "Night Songs" was kinda like a dark AC/DC in terms of riffs. The heavy straight-up power chords and the single note riffage combo to rock it.

[@bobowrathsovine.]

Saw them live in 91, it was so loud I couldn't make out the music. Lynch Mob and Nelson opened.

[@HeadbangersLocal]

Awesome! I’m from Philly and I remember these guys. I believe all songs are tuned down to Eb, at least I thought they were. . Not sure if it was mentioned. Great video! 🤘🏻

[@hakankillberg6043]

What great licks. Best ever David. You are an amasing guitar player. Thanks. Pls do some Mötley Crue

[@krudler406]

great episode, thanks Dave!

[@cooltunesmadeeasy]

One word...ROCKING!

[@aquabot]

Cinderella rock indeed! Hey, David, a chorplay about Living Volour or Killing Joke would be great. Keep up the good work.

[@bertgetner9397]

Awesome. Back when hairy riffs still lead rock and roll. Nailed 'em pretty good Dave!

[@jimdryer9078]

Always considered Night Songs to be the third best debut album of the genre, behind Appetite For Destruction and Skid Row.

[@Peter-by3ox]

Man I love the way your camera gives a curved look on your videos, it's either the camera or I am too stoned. Great video! one of first tunes I learnt by ear and jammed with a band was Push Push.

[@m0th3rst4r]

Have to admit that album cover and videos from nightsongs kept me away from checking them out - until i heard "somebody save me" on the radio.

[@pablodebiddlybo3771]

Saw them in my hometown LIverpool in ‘88 at the Royal court and they kicked ass. Skid row we’re supporting I think

[@bongos4641]

Do a vid about Mick Sweda of Bulletboys!

[@TestarossaRocks]

This! His riffs are so out of the box.

[@Scottocaster6668]

I really like Mick's style, he has a real attitude and cool chord approach. "Hell Yeah" from "Freakshow" is a good example.

[@cmanningjr]

David delivered the goods! Great lesson....

[@douglaschristine8387]

Hey David, I just watched Rex Carroll on you tube right after I watched your video about him and you said you couldn't find out anything about him and here he is.

[@tyler2830]

Love Cinderella. Don't know what you got till it's gone.... Dude could you please please please do one of my all-time favorite band.. Damn Yankee's.

[@bghammock]

Best channel on KZbin

[@gregc8483]

I Loved this!

[@bmoraski]

I have on cassette and cd. Raw is the right term. Once around the ride and save me blew me away.

[@Ghostplayer796]

hey late night lessons i just found your channel and love your chordplay videos, so much great infos for guitarists. I wondered if you could do one about Death. that would be brutally awesome. keep up your inspiring work man \m/

[@donniesmith8493]

Best live band ever,and i was a 80s rocker keifers voice was on point everysong and he could have been a lead guitarist in any other band on the scene

[@warincolour810]

Great video! Of one of my favourite bands! I have a question if anyone could help me... I have a boss katanna 50watt Amp and I am wondering how to adjust the tone settings to get that unique sound... Thanks! Rock on!! 🤘

[@josearalat]

Great band to do Chordplay, thanks for that. Is this songs (album) in standard tuning?

[@pathaden]

Yes sir

[@Scottocaster6668]

Yes, most are. Nobody's fool is a tad flat of 440.

[@cshades8026]

Would be really cool to see a chordplay episode of other lesser known bands like Splender or Matthew Good Band.

[@jonbigg7385]

I have a request for a Chordplay lesson. I've heard you mention writing your own music. How about "The Chords of David Brewster"?

[@gregc7227]

Killer opening riff!

[@jcs737c7]

Love your vids!

[@arnoldjones]

Thanks that was great. How about the chordplay of the Wildhearts? Their Earth Vs the Wildhearts album had some great chordplay.

[@joker57]

Once around the ride!!!!!!!!

[@bobnagy984]

Awesome! Need more Scorpions!!

[@TestarossaRocks]

Bulletboys. I can’t figure out a bunch of sweda’s riffs.

[@NB-fc4rl]

How about covering Firehouse ...

[@WallyBoots]

Firehouse!! They had a lot of amazing riffs would be a great episode

[@crisprtalk6963]

Who plays the solo in Nobody's Fool?
