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.

What makes this version special is Jerry going from the feedback of DS and then firing some cool power riffs into Sugar Mag. Its pretty sweet...give it a listen.

Threw this version in again...this version is everything that makes the GD amazing. Has lots of great themes, including one of the fastest and energetic Feeling Groovy jams. It does finish with a few minutes of feedback, but overall a special version. Not as great at 4/8 or 5/11, but one of the best from this tour.

I agree...has a great feel to it as Phil opens with some bombs.
