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.

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.

Only about 8 mins, but some nice runs by Jerry in the middle. Worth checking out. Dave's picks#2.

Miami Arena

This version is perfect. Killer space before it as it segues into a pure intro. Lot of gems at this show besides the Star.
Close Encounters Jam

McArthur Court, U of Oregon

This one is by far the best one and most developed.

Miami Arena

Gave this show a spin again. One of my all time favs. One of the best Estimated's. Excellent mid-jam. Great outro and fits perfectly with the epic DS to be played later.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Can't go wrong with Pine Knob or Bonner Springs from this tour, either.

Delta Center

This is my favorite song from this show. They pull it off and smoke it. Even Jerry kills it at the end. "It really makes Des Moines look second rate.'' Classic. This defines dank.
