The Sun, Moon & Herbs is the fourth studio album by New Orleans R&B artist Dr. John. Released in 1971, The Sun, Moon & Herbs is noted for its contributions from Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, and other well-known musicians. It was originally intended to be a three-album set but was cut down to a single disc. The album was described by James Chrispell on AllMusic as "dark and swampy" and "best listened to on a hot, muggy night with the sound of thunder rumbling off in the distance like jungle drums". The album was Dr. John's first album to reach the Billboard 200, spending five weeks there and peaking at number 184 on November 6, 1971.
