All Together Now, released in July 1972, was the third album recorded by British rock band Argent. It was originally released on Epic Records, KE 31556. It was Argent's first hit album; it features "Hold Your Head Up", their most successful single, which reached number five in both the UK and U.S. singles charts. Other featured songs include "Tragedy", "I Am the Dance of Ages" and "He's a Dynamo".
The 1997 compact disc re-release of All Together Now by Koch Records features an additional seven tracks not included on the original seven-track vinyl record. The bonus tracks include "God Gave Rock and Roll to You", which, owing to the popular cover/remake by Kiss, is one of Argent's best-known songs.
In 2009, for their reunion, Mr. Big recorded a cover of "Hold Your Head Up" and played it throughout the tour. Australian rock supergroup The Party Boys covered "Hold Your Head Up" in 1987 on their only studio album The Party Boys. Uriah Heep also covered the song on their 1989 album Raging Silence. All bonus tracks were previously released on albums, except "Kingdom", which was the flip side of the "Celebration" single, and "Closer to Heaven" which was the B-side of the single "Hold Your Head Up".
In the Q and Mojo Classic Special Edition Pink Floyd & The Story of Prog Rock, the album ranked 33rd in the list of "40 Cosmic Rock Albums".
Steppenwolf covered "Hold Your Head Up" on their 1982 album Wolftracks.
