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.

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.

Prof, I agree with most things u post, but I think this roadtrips form 3/31-4/1 is pretty ho-hum and that's why not much has been posted before.

This one is as definitive of any version of any song. I like 3/24/90, but this version should have like 50 votes. There just shouldn't be a close second. Listen to both and it is so obvious.
