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
Aug. 23, 1971
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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

Both segments are great, but the Fire is phenomenal....love Brent/Jer on the final jam.
Franklin's Tower

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

The transition isn't as funky, but this a helluva Franklin's. Brent is pretty funky on this. Loved this combo together!

Civic Auditorium

This is not on the archive and DL put this nugget in the taper's section. What a fuckin' treat if u love this era for the O1 like I do. Oh yeah....and a juicy Cryptical that is required to be truly epic. I am not going to say its as good as 2/13, BUT THIS NEEDS TO BE LISTENED TO NOW before it goes back in the vault.

Kezar Stadium
