Dino Valente
Dino Valente (1968) is the first and sole solo album by the American singer and songwriter Chester (Chet) William Powers JR, also called Dino Valenti or Valente, mostrly known as founder and early leader of the Quicksilver Messenger Service band. This album features rock, folk and country along with psychedelic notes, blending introspective lyrics with West Coast vibes. Though overlooked at the time, it's now seen as a cult classic of the late-60s counterculture. This new vinyl edition is the first after 13 years.
