Tantamount To Treason Volume 1 (also known as simply Tantamount to Treason) is Michael Nesmith's fourth solo album during his post-Monkees career. Released in 1972, Tantamount To Treason is the only album Michael Nesmith recorded and released with the Second National Band. The Second National Band was filled out by Michael Cohen on keyboards (who had played on Nesmith's previous LP Nevada Fighter and on some of Nesmith's Monkees sessions), big-band drummer Jack Ranelli, bassist Johnny Meeks (who had played lead guitar years before with Gene Vincent), and Puerto Rican conga player Jose Feliciano.

Nesmith then formed The Second National Band, who recorded the next album, TANTAMOUNT TO TREASON, VOLUME ONE, originally released in early 1972. These two albums make up the second "two-fer" in the BMG Camden Deluxe Nesmith series. Tantamount to Treason seems to take a lot of criticism. After listening to the album a few times, I have nothing but praise. While Nevada Fighter is very consistent with Mike's First National Band material, TtT shows Nesmith reaching a new artistic milestone. If you don't believe Mike was as much of a musical genius as say, Brian Wilson, you probably won't quite get my enthusiasm. An assumed sequel (Tantamount to Treason Vol. 2) was said to have been recorded but was never released. The album is celebrated by Nesmith fans for its trippy, almost psychedelic feel.
