It's All About is the 1968 debut album by British band Spooky Tooth,[5] released in the United Kingdom by Island Records on 26 July 1968.

In West Germany the record was released by Fontana.[6] 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.

Critical reception

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."[3]
