Looks Like Rain

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

A perfect rendition and maybe best of May 77. Bob and Donna really harmonize well at end. This St. Paul show deserves more hype.

This hot version from St. Paul is from a very under-rated show that is better than Mosque show IMHO.

Cryptical Envelopment

Auditorium Theatre

The vital cryptical reprise that climaxes like all the best crypticals do. Is it 2/13/70 or 5/2/70??? No, but its damn good.

Played a week before the 8/6/71 version, but super hot also. Both versions are a part of Road Trips Vol1-3.

Only about 8 mins, but some nice runs by Jerry in the middle. Worth checking out. Dave's picks#2.

I kinda like the ones prior to this more. Just a touch slower and a little groovier. Still good tho. Bama remains definitive for me.

Another song played well in 1977. This is a keeper.

Take your pick from this month as best ever. This is definitely in the running. Probably best show of the year that does not have a S/F, H/S/F, Stephen, Dew, etc.

Awesome modern day version!
