Classic rock genius Tommy James writes Spotify top song mashup of Neil Young of Crazy Horse and Cream single



On his new single “Cinnamon Girl/Sunshine of Your Love,” Tommy James pays homage to two longtime favorites with a cover medley of Neil Young’s “Cinnamon Girl” and Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love.” In this bright and tight mashup of Neil Young’s enduring 1970 love song and Cream’s haunting Top 5 hit from ‘67, James showcases his enduring skills as a singer and producer.

Tommy was a big fan of his fellow rock stars in the 1960s. “I’ve been wanting to glue these two songs together for a long time,” says James. “The riffs work together hand-in-glove. They’re the same tempo and key - yet totally different songs!” The track was released to digital outlets worldwide on March 20, 2020 via Aura Entertainment/The Orchard.  

Tommy James is celebrated not only as a singer and songwriter with his band The Shondells in the 1960s, but also as an innovative producer of smashes “Crimson and Clover,” “Mony Mony,” and “Crystal Blue Persuasion,”, with many millions sold in his fifty years of making music. 

Tommy celebrates the music of the 1960s on his weekly radio show ‘Gettin’ Together’ on SiriusXM’s 60s on 6. His acclaimed biography Me, The Mob and The Music is currently in production as a biopic, and he continues to tour nationwide with The Shondells.

Rhett Mays Creatures of the Night Album Loved by Music Critics

Jason Hillenburg of Skopemag.com writes, “Originally born in the rather exotic environs of Calcutta, India, Rhett May enjoyed the fruits of living in such a vibrant culture for many eyars and started his first band early on in life after the sounds of 1960’s music like The Beatles, Steppenwolf, The Yardbirds and Cream migrated from the distant west into eastern culture.”  This is an all-encompassing first take on the musical inspiration behind Rhett May’s music.  His affinity towards both western and eastern influences turned Rhett into an incredibly well rounded artist in many musical spheres.   Having worked with incredible artists like George Harrison, Queen and Ray Charles and performing for cultural icons like the Queen of Bhutan has really resulted Rhett becoming an exceptional musician.  His newest album “Creatures of the Night” is a testament to this.  It is a rock-fusion work that encompasses much unusual instrumentation, grooves and writing styles that are absolutely successful in execution.  He also shot a video for the title track of the album that is gripping and will keep you watching until the last second.  You can watch the video on his YouTube channel.

Acclaimed Creatures of the Night Rock Album by Rhett May Surpassed All Expectations

Rhett May’s “Creatures of the Night” is truly an exceptional rock fusion album.  Rhett is one of the most promising musicians in rock today.  His music seems to improve with every album he releases. In a review by Lance Wright of GasHouseRadio Rhett is described as, “a performer who has been empowered by having another chance for his music to affect and entertain the masses and each of the songs on this new release embraces that opportunity.” 

Rhett May, born in Calcutta, has had a diverse and multi-cultural career.  In addition to his superb skills as a songwriter and guitar player, he has also mastered the Sitar and worked extensively with eastern instrumentations that are rarely present in contemporary rock.  His song “Elixir of the Gods” really brings these eastern sounds to the foreground and makes them easily enjoyable for listeners from any background.  Another notable song is the second to last “Bella My Baby.”  Contrasting from “Elixir of the Gods,” this tune has an incredible old school rock feel that cuts hard and really shows off May’s phenomenal vocal skills.  In addition to this incredible thirteen-song album, Rhett also produced and released a video to go along with the title track.  It is imaginative, engaging and gripping and will keep you watching until the last second.  You can watch the video on his YouTube channel.

Rhett May recently released an incredible album titled “Creatures of the Night.”  The album is a rock-based work with incorporated pop, funk, psychedelic and jazz.  “Creatures of the Night” stands out as one of the best rock releases in recent memory and proves that rock n roll is indeed alive and well.  The album contains many original moments but, at times, also reminds the listener of the days of classic artists like the Beatles.  If the Beatles had been formed in this decade, they probably would have been influenced by “Creatures of the Night” for it’s revolutionary qualities much like the revolutionary musical ideas the Beatles had back in their time.

Each song in the album seems to evolve and move through distinct and different musical intentions creating an ebb and flow that lasts throughout the album.  It is one of the few albums released recently that really works as a cohesive listen all the way through.   In addition to the extensive effort put into the music, Rhett also filmed and released a brilliant music video to accompany the title song of the album.  It even has a twist at the end that is well worth the wait!  You can watch the video on his YouTube channel.
