Really fun, rocking version to close out what's really an excellent show. Top 5 of 1993.

Spunky version from the first night of the last MSG run. Jerry is alert, singing with confidence and playing extremely well.

Fuck this song, but the entire show is now represented. Decent Jerry leads.

Lovely version of the Dylan classic. Jerry plays some great leads and his acoustic tone works extremely well here.

Not the biggest fan of this song, but this is a good version with a strong Jerry solo.

Hell in a Bucket
June 21, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

This one gets some hate because everyone was expecting "Fire" after "Scarlet" and Bob kind of forces the band to go into "Bucket" instead. That said, this is a fast and furious version that deserves your attention.

Kickass version.
Hell in a Bucket

Coliseum

Only complaint is Healey goes overboard with the echo on Bob's voice.

This is a great and unique version. If there's any complaint I have, it's a little TOO heavy on Jerry, as Vince was really holding back (understandable given how early in his tenure it was), which rob it of some of the dynamics that make other versions so special. In the 1974-90 versions, I looked forward as much to Keith and Brent's contributions as I did Jerry's.

Agreed, although some of the 1990-1991 have a bit more of the urgency present in the studio version.
