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.

Wow...just discovered this one. I love any version that's 30 mins long. Has some great peaks by everyone at different moments as stated by Freedom.

Still prefer Veneta to this one.

Agree...always thought this should have as many votes as the DS...its just as legendary. Don't forget to up-vote the amazing cryptical, too.

Its funny...everyone has 11's that they wish had a soundboard...then you have this one with great quality and it has two crappy votes and probably should be in most peoples top 5.
