"I Am What I Am" is a studio album that includes the first recordings by Milan (with the exception of an earlier single on End). The front cover "(pictured)" also includes "presenting a bright new star".Album cover. ] The album was produced by Budd Granoff.Album liner notes. ]

Although Milan recorded many additional songs on later singles, this was the only album ever released in his name. This album (and its associated single) is also notable for apparently being the only time in his career that Milan provided a glimpse of his real name, Rick Rodell.

ongwriter Credits

Milan is listed as the songwriter on all tracks under the name "M. Rodell"; on the 45, the songwriter's name is Milan Rodelle (which is presumably a misspelling). As verified in the liner notes, the album is unusual for pop music albums of the times in this regard. There are three music publishing companies listed for the songs on the album: Jonathan Glenn Music, Nom Music and Pine Knob Music.
