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.

Introduces Donna...and then they just kill it...just love these 10 min E72 versions. This one is fuckin destroyed as they reach tiger chaos before you can take a breath and then just hammer home the Playin' theme at the end. Awesome. Just had to comment again.

This one is very good. Probably not top 20, tho. It does have a cool transition.
