Home is the second studio album by the Irish rock band Hothouse Flowers, released in 1990. It reached number 5 on the UK Albums Chart and 1 on the Australian charts. Critical reception The Los Angeles Times wrote that "the gospel-influenced rave-ups that punctuate the band's second album call into question how much soul it can squeeze from the boogie". The Windsor Star determined that the band "is best when it rams straight ahead on full-blown horn tunes, like 'Hardstone City' and 'Giving It All Away'". Jonathan Lewis of AllMusic deemed Home an "underrated gem". Track listing All songs written by Hothouse Flowers, except where noted.
