It's All About is the 1968 debut album by British band Spooky Tooth,[2] released in the United Kingdom by Island Records on 26 July 1968.
In West Germany the record was released by Fontana.[3] The American version of the album, entitled Spooky Tooth, was originally released on Bell in 1968. It was reissued in 1971 by A&M Records as Tobacco Road.
Robert Christgau reviewed the album's 1971 American reissue in (1981), preferring it to the band's other records, "before anybody had figured out how to really exploit all these iron zeppelins and lead butterflies". He concluded that it "offers Beatles harmonies, a roundabout song that preceded Yes's, and a straight remake of 'The Weight' in addition to the hilariously melosoulful John D. Loudermilk cover that provides its U.S. title. Ahh, the good old days."
