Redd's Blues was released on LP in 1988, and on CD in 2002.[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described the album as "very dull indeed", and added that "Freddie's compositions are pastiche bebop, and if you were told these had been written to soundtrack a 'jazz play' you'd readily believe it".[3] The AllMusic reviewer concluded that "Redd's Blues sounds like one of those off-days where the music just came out sounding generic and lifeless".[2]
