Hell in a Bucket

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Explosive show opener. Wire to wire intensity, energy and execution. A must-hear for Bucket fans.

Oh, the truth to you I'll tell - this kicks butt.

Hot vocals. Bruce crazy good. Jerry & Vince sound good on their solos. Awesome version.

A great song they should have played more. Solid version. Hornsby is all over it.

Richfield Coliseum

Phil's vocals here are as good as it gets for this tune.

Boston Garden

There's a spot - as usual for this song - where Jerry's guitar work is off. Overall, this is better than some other versions I've listened to. Again, Vince does his best and sounds good.

Riverport Amphitheater

This is brutal. Jerry's guitar work pre-vocals and on the first instrumental break are way off and sound really sour. The harmonies often clash. Vince is playing better than anybody else.

Soldier Field

If you really like Phil's singing, I guess you'll like this. I think it's awful - a set killer.
A Voice From On High
Aug. 5, 1970
Golden Hall - San Diego Community Concourse

Possibly the best out of the 4. If not, surely second best.

The Matrix

An improvement from the show on 7-11.
