Down Home Blues (Lightnin' Hopkins album)

Down Home Blues is an album by blues musician Lightnin' Hopkins recorded in 1964 and released on the Bluesville label.

Reception
The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings said "Gaskin and Lovelle's parts were probably added at overdub sessions. On Down Home Blues only "I Was Standing on 75 Highway" is Lightnin' at full strength".
