TOMMY ROE- " CINNAMON "

[MultiCBGB]

Great Tommy Roe fan but yes Derek's version for me.

[BuddyNovinski]

I have this song on the album "Dizzy", which I bought around Christmas 1972.  However, I agree that Derek was better. Besides, does Tommy Roe realize the sexual undertones of the song? "Dizzy" is much more like his image. This is more like "Back Door Man"!

Much as I like Tommy Roe, I also prefer the Derek version.

Thanks for all these Tommy Roe uploads. I remember hearing them on my older cousin's 45s when I was a little girl. Ah..the memories.

Reminds me of a Dancer at that time who used the stage name Cinnamon ( yeah, that song was in the juke box and got played.............a lot!!! ) .

[BCK]

Some of the older pix reminds me of Jimmy Clanton

I named a red retriever ' Cinnamon' because of this song ... way back when it came out. I am making cinnamon toothpicks tonight and this song just popped in my head... makes me smile to remember songs like these....

I like this version, though I'm more familiar with Derek's version. Weren't they both around '68? 5*****. (Oh, and I hope 'zuseable' didn't have too much of a hangover, lol!!)

The piano and horns sound really good on this, and the background singers are a little further into the background than on the Derek (Johnny Cimbal) version. Didn't know it existed until now, but it's definitely a little better.
