Lightnin'

Lightnin' (subtitulada The Blues of Lightnin' Hopkins) es un álbum del músico de blues Lightnin' Hopkins, grabado en 1960 y publicado en el sello Bluesville al año siguiente. Recepción El crítico de AllMusic Alex Henderson señaló: "Lightnin' is among the rewarding acoustic dates Lightnin' Hopkins delivered in the early '60s. The session has an informal, relaxed quality, and this approach serves a 48-year-old Hopkins impressively well ... Lightnin' is a lot like being in a small club with Hopkins as he shares his experiences, insights and humor with you".<ref name="AllMusic">{{AllMusic|first=Alex |last=Henderson |class=album |id=mw0000316599 |title= Lightnin' Hopkins: Lightnin''' – Review |accessdate= November 6, 2018}}</ref> The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings otorgó al álbum 3 estrellas, señalando que "Lightnin's performances are unfailingly fluent, perhaps because he doesn't challenge himself: almost all the songs on Lightnin' '' are well-tried pieces from his core repertoire".
