Dino Valente
by Dino Valenti
The 1393rd greatest album of all time
Dino Valente (1968) is a self-titled solo record that emphasizes folk rock songwriting with acoustic foundations augmented by electric instrumentation and light psychedelic touches typical of the late 1960s West Coast scene. The album foregrounds Valente's warm, reedy vocal delivery and melodic, introspective songs, making it a representative solo statement from a songwriter active in San Francisco's folk-rock circles.
