- A Man Ain't Supposed to Cry is a 1958 album by the American jazz singer Joe Williams arranged by Jimmy Mundy. It is an album of ballads and torch songs. John Bush, reviewing the album for Allmusic, praises Williams as "an excellent balladeer with a rich vibrato and the confidence to let a straight reading speak for itself". Gramophone critiqued the arrangements as using "strings quite excessively" and Williams's performances as "stress[ing] sentiment rather than swing". The initial Billboard review from February 3, 1958 said that the album was a "convincing, well-performed ballad set" and that Williams's talent was "formidable". Mundy's orchestral arrangements were "mellifluous yet unobtrusive". (en)
