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.

Did everyone throw away the Dave's picks bonus disc for 2013?? This easily could be best ever.

Nice Dave's pick. I love all these 69-70 DS's. Its kinda just in your face guitar work.

This is a great version and has similar rushes like the Shrine definitive version.

What a great song. I like this one a little more than Pow Wow shows.
