Famed New Orleans singer and pianist Willie Tee gives one of his finest ever performances on this classic release from 1969, produced by David Axelrod!

I'm Only A Man introduced heavy orchestration and sweeping arrangements to Tee's music, yet without sacrificing the emotional complexity of his vocals. Original compositions such as "Mirror" and the fantastic opener "Bring on the Heartaches" are balanced by superb cover versions of "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" and "People," with some beautiful surprises (see the bold, cinematic sound of "Lonliness") in between.
