Lightnin' Strikes is an album by the blues musician Lightnin' Hopkins, recorded in Texas in 1962 and released on the Vee-Jay label.

[1][2] The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings wrote: "Creatively speaking, this is Lightnin' on no more than good form, rising to very good indeed in 'Walking Round in Circles', but the sonic effects lend the music a strangeness that some listeners may find attractive".

[4] AllMusic reviewer Cub Koda stated: "This brings together some early-'60s sides that Hopkins recorded for the Chicago-based Vee-Jay label, although all of them were recorded in his native Houston.

... two are full-band tracks produced by drummer King Ivory Lee Semiens with Lightnin' playing electric, the band following his erratic timing as best as they can".
