Critical reception

Шаблон:Album ratings The Clarion-Ledger noted the "enormous crossover possibility."[11] Bill Bentley, in LA Weekly, called Down Home the best album of 1982.[12] Living Blues wrote: "With all due respect to Robert Cray's greater success on the pop charts, Z. Z. Hill's 'Down Home Blues' is the most influential single blues recording of the '80s, and perhaps is the modern day blues anthem."[13]

MusicHound R&B: The Essential Album Guide called Down Home "maybe the realization of [Hill's] life's work."[14] AllMusic deemed it "one of the very few classic blues albums of the 1980s."[15]
