A Man With a Horn is an album by jazz saxophonist Lou Donaldson featuring sessions recorded for the Blue Note label in 1961 and 1963 (but not released until 1999), one performed by Donaldson with Brother Jack McDuff, Grant Green and Joe Dukes, and one with Grant Green, Irvin Stokes, Big John Patton and Ben Dixon.
The album was awarded 3 stars in an Allmusic review by Al Campbell, who states "This is a mainly mellow affair with six of the nine tracks exchanging the hard bop and soul-jazz of the times for ballads and slow blues. However, the occasional up-tempo funky surprise does pop up".
Recorded on September 25, 1961 (#1, 3, 5, 7, 9) and June 7, 1963 (#2, 4, 6, 8).
