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.

I love this version. Jerry has some funny vocal stuff during last refrain. Also, the transition into Stir it Up is awesome as one by one each member gets on board. Get it.

See 10/14/1994 for epic latter-day. This one here is pretty standard stuff.

Beautiful version that's almost 13 mins with nice transition back into Playin.

This certainly is as good as the other May 77 versions if not better at the best show of the tour. Agree with grendel...I think this one being in the second set, gives it a little more.

Yeah...they drove this one home. Roll tide.
