The rock/blues musician and founder of the metal/rock band Cinderella includes bonus track on the reissue.

Tom Keifer, the renowned veteran rock ‘n’ roll/blues musician and founder of heavy metal act Cinderella, will have his critically acclaimed debut solo album, The Way Life Goes, reissued by the illustrious label Cleopatra Records. 

The Deluxe Edition of The Way Life Goes will arrive on October 20th and features the original album, which has been remastered by Richard Dodd (Kings of Leon, Jason Aldean, Lady Antebellum).  Two new bonus tracks are also included, which were recorded in Nashville by Grammy Award-winner Vance Powell (Jack White, Chris Stapleton). 

Keifer and his bandmates Tony Higbee, Billy Mercer, Paul Simmons, Paul Taylor, Savannah Keifer, and Kendra Chantelle recorded The Beatles’ “With A Little Help From My Friends,” that Keifer performs at all of his concerts.  He also duets with Lzzy Hale of Halestorm on the Cinderella classic “Nobody’s Fool.”

The accompanying bonus DVD is packed with music videos, tour footage, and a 30-minute documentary titled The Way Life’s Goin’, which was produced by Tammy Vega, Keifer’s longtime official photographer.  The film goes into the creation of the bonus tracks and features exclusive interviews with the band during the new recording sessions and live clips.

The Deluxe Edition of The Way Life Goes is packaged in a newly designed six-panel digipak by artist David Calcano who is known as the creator of the Fantoons comic strip series.  The digipak comes with 20 pages of one-of-a-kind illustrations depicting each song.

Keifer explains, “Everything from the new artwork, documentary, videos and bonus tracks contained in the deluxe edition is a sum of all the amazingly talented people who came into our world as a result of the initial release. The two bonus tracks were specifically chosen and recorded as we felt them both to be special collaborations that came about while touring for The Way Life Goes.”

New band members Jarred Pope (drums) and Kory Myers (keyboards/vocals) have joined Keifer’s band line-up this year.  Writing has begun for a follow-up to The Way Life Goes with recording scheduled for 2018.

Pre-orders of the Deluxe Edition of The Way Life Goes are now available on Amazon and on Cleopatra Records.
