Reception
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars and stated "A set of gritty electric funk and soulful blues, Down Home Style is an excellent showcase for Brother Jack McDuff's gripping, funky style... the record is designed as a showcase for McDuff's wild, intoxicating Hammond organ, and he runs with the it, demonstrating every one of his tricks".[2]

gollark: It's a shame we're so averse to nuclear stuff, or my watch could go from "battery replacement needed every 7 years" to "*nuclear* battery replacement every 100 years".
gollark: Not yet, not yet...]
gollark: It seemed like such an innocent idea - embedding small radioisotope generators in SSDs so if the power fails they can continue writing from their buffers, or run routine maintenance tasks. But little did they know that some SSDs would explode when they hit end-of-life...
gollark: Randomly exploding *nuclear-powered* SSDs.
gollark: Some of them might randomly explode, some of them might go into read-only mode, some of them might go into read-only mode early when you've hit the end of the manufacturer-given lifespan and then nuke themselves.
