You need to quote both args to `add-to-list':

(add-to-list 'load-path '("~/.emacs.d/plugins/color-theme-6.6.0"))
                       ^
                     quote

Without the quote, (foo) is interpreted as a call of function `foo' - in this
case, a call of ~/.emacs.d/plugins/color-theme-6.6.0 (which is not a valid
function).
