“Cinnamon Girl” (Gentrys) #52 6/13/1970

Foremost and always associated with Neil Young, he wasn’t the first to chart with his own song here. The Gentrys (“Keep On Dancing”) have that honor. The band’s regular front man was none other than Jimmy Hart. Yep, wrestling’s Mouth of the South, straight outta Memphis, actually sang lead in a rock and roll band. However, the vocals on “Dancing” were done by their guitarist at the time, Larry Raspberry.
