Willie Tee - I'm Only A Man

The Adderley brothers (Julian and Nat) were very fond of New Orleans and made a point of playing here when they could. They made a lot of friends here as did their pianist Joe Zawinul, but none closer than the Turbinton brothers, Earl and Wilson (Willie Tee). In the late 60's and early 70's both brothers made appearances with Cannonball's band and both show up on Zawinuls' early 70's lps. In addition there was this album, produced by the Adderley's producer David Axlerod for JuNat Productions and released on Capitol Records. Zawinul appears as a co-writer on two tracks.  Years later, in his Weather Report years, Zawinul would feature the song "Can It Be Done" which was written for him by Willie Tee.

Great song, but I was unfamiliar with this album. Absolutely love Willie Tee. The album he did with his brother Earl, Brothers For Life, is one of my all time favorites.
