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.

Yale Bowl, Yale University

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

This ones up there with those smoking 1972 versions. Boy, did this show start off as a barn burner.

Agree with Grendel. Also, the transition into to Bertha is spot on. Starts off this epic show. Every song could be up-voted.

As good as the UCLA version. The transition into UJB is good, but not as epic as UCLA.
