Down Home New York is an album by the American jazz saxophonist Archie Shepp recorded in 1984 and released on the Italian Soul Note label.[1]

Reception

The Allmusic review by Ron Wynn awarded the album 3 stars stating "Archie Shepp was the picture of rebellion and anger in the 1960s, but he became the voice of swing, blues and classicism in the 1980s. Shepp displayed his penchant for honking R&B and soulful blues on this 1984 date".[2]
