One Man Dog is the fourth studio album by singer-songwriter James Taylor. Released on November 1, 1972, it climbed to number 4 on the US Billboard Top LPs & Tape chart. The album features the hit single "Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight", which peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on January 13, 1973. The follow-up single, "One Man Parade", also charted, but less successfully, peaking at number 67 in the US, and reaching number 55 on the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart.
The basic tracks for the album's 18 tracks, many of which are relatively short, were primarily recorded in Taylor's home studio. A Quadraphonic mix of the album was produced, which included alternate vocal takes and elongated versions of some songs, compared to the standard stereo release.
