1986 studio album by Archie Shepp
Little Red Moon is an album by the American jazz saxophonist Archie Shepp recorded in 1985 and released on the Italian Soul Note label.[ 1]
Reception The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 2 stars, stating: "By 1985 Archie Shepp's tone on tenor had declined quite a bit from just a few years earlier.... Despite some good moments from the supporting cast, this is one to skip".[ 2]
