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.

Really a pretty version and one of the longer versions. Could easily be top 5.

The Mosque

This show isn't even top 10 of May 1977. The Peggy O from unknown St. Paul show is even better. Its like everyone bought Dave's Picks 1 and now think this is the greatest show. No epic vote here.

The Mosque

This mosque show is solid, but its like...they put the show on CD and all of a sudden this is the greatest show in the world with every song being top 5 ever played. Lots of custies here.

31 minute That's it for the O1. This version is better than the October version at the same venue and has the ending cryptical finish that blows your mind.
