Not my favorite way for Jerry to play it, but it still rocks.

Jerry is all over the map with the lyrics.

It would be better if they played it a little faster.

Nassau Coliseum

Probably the most hated song they played - even moreso than Day Job.

Samba In The Rain
Oct. 18, 1994
Madison Square Garden

Admit it - there have been worse songs from Brent and Phil.
Picasso Moon

Madison Square Garden

This song can be really awesome. At times Jerry soars and shreds. All along Bruce keeps up his dominant role, with his keys rocking and sparkling.
Hell in a Bucket
Sept. 21, 1991
Boston Garden

Towards the instrumental break, Jerry and Bruce are slugging it out. Good stuff. Bruce pushes things at the end for a powerful conclusion.
Hell in a Bucket

Madison Square Garden

Sweet uptempo rocker, with some hot Bobby vocals and some Jerry fanning the mid-song instrumental.

This is really entertaining. You can't find a version from 1977 with better vocals, more diverse sounds or styles. 1991 had some truly great versions.
