Cinderella bola americká hard rocková kapela z Philadelphie, ktorá vznikla v roku 1983. Najväčších úspechov dosiahla v druhej polovici 80. rokov s multiplatinovými albumami a hitmi rotovanými na MTV. Hoci bola zaraďovaná do glam metalu, jej zvuk postupne smeroval k blues rocku. Počas kariéry skupina predala viac ako 18 miliónov platní po celom svete.

Prvé tri disky obsahujú štúdiové nahrávky z albumov Night Songs, Long Cold Winter a Heartbreak Station, vrátane hitov Nobody's Fool, Don't Know What You Got a Gypsy Road. Štvrtý disk prináša ďalšie štúdiové skladby ako Bad Attitude Shuffle alebo Blood from a Stone, piaty zas koncertné záznamy vrátane coveru Jumpin' Jack Flash.
