C.C. Banana: We hear that there are certain legal complications preventing Cinderella from releasing a new studio album. This situation dates back to the late 1990s when you first signed with Sony, so wouldn't any statute of limitations be up by now? Is there anything you're allowed to tell us about the status of this phantom album?
Jeff LaBar: It's not a legal matter, we simply don't have a record deal. That's all there is to it. Sony never prevented us from putting out a record, they just never released one. Our legal problems with them are over. After we signed with Sony, we wrote material and made demos for the next 3 years. But they never put us in the studio with a producer to make a record because John Kalodner felt that the writing wasn't strong enough. So he just kept telling us to write.
C.C. Banana: Is a new album something that Cinderella would still like to pursue at this point?
Jeff LaBar: It's all up to Tom (Keifer). I don't think he'll do it. He probably won't do his solo album, either. Eric (Brittingham) and I can put out Naked Beggars albums all by ourselves, but I don't think Cinderella will ever put out another record.
