Allmusic.com gave Hard Rain this review:

Hard Rain is a snapshot of Bob Dylan’s fabled Rolling Thunder Revue, a traveling circus that was more notable for its excess and character than the music. Hard Rain bears this out, being neither as sacrilegious or as exciting as Blood on the Tracks, and never seeming necessary — after all, it arrives just two years after the last live album.
