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.

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

Some nice harmonies and the mandolin fits in well.

For the most part, a very good version. Jerry plays some mean guitar. There is a spot where Jerry is supposed to be singing backup vocals, but leaves Brent to do it alone. Then there's the part where Brent is playing something you'd expect to hear during a boat chase scene on Miami Vice. Seriously out of place!

Bob has the vocal range and hits all the notes. The band does a solid job backing him up. Easily among the top 2 or 3 versions from the 90's.

Bob's voice is shot and he never should have attempted a song like this that demands such range and strain.
