Classic rock legend, Tommy James, is back with his new hit single on Spotify, which pays homage to Neil Young and Crazy Horse, and Cream, with a mashup of Cinnamon Girl and Sunshine of your love. The Hitmaker has always been a big fan of his fellow rock stars in the 1960s, stating Ive been wanting to glue these two songs together for a long time. The riffs work together hand-in-glove. Theyre the same tempo and key - yet totally different songs!
"Cinnamon Girl" by Neil Young and Crazy Horse was on the Platinum selling album "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere" album released in 1969, and reached #34 in 1970 on Billboard magazine's Top 200 LP chart. The single peaked at #55 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1970.
"Sunshine Of Your Love" by Cream was on the album "Disraeli Gears" released in 1967, and reached #77 in 1968 on the LP chart. The 45 peaked at #5 in 1968 and was a Gold single.
There is music appreciation in the air, as Modern Punk band, Green Day pays tribute to Tommy with a cover of I Think Were Alone Now available on Youtube.
When Tommys not touring around the globe, he shares rock and roll history as a star host of "Getting Together With Tommy James on SiriusXM 60s on 6 Sunday evenings from 5-8 pm.
