all in your head

Released 19/10/09. Possibly the Great Lost Acid Casualty album, All In Your Head was recorded in California in 1969 by former Animals guitarist Hilton Valentine, whose heavy reliance on LSD throughout the latter half of the 1960s had contributed significantly to his former band’s summer-of- 66 demise."

A beguiling blend of winsome, Donovan-esque psychedelic folk and chamber pop arrangements, sadly the album failed to find an audience, largely due to the record company deciding not to promote it after falling out with the Animals management. Now gaining a first-ever release outside of North America, All In Your Head is revealed to be a mesmerising period piece, its wide-eyed paeans to Mother Nature, flower-child nursery rhymes and overwhelming peace n love ethos capturing the era as accurately as many more celebrated albums."

This long-overdue release is taken from the original master tapes, and features rare photos and a new essay (including numerous quotes from Hilton) on this little-known masterpiece."
