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.

Some solid f-bomb by Weir

It has one of the best intros ever. Solid outro, not like the crazy ones from 77, tho. Really a top notch version that is under the radar.

I'm going to pass on this. The tune really didn't start to rock until 1978.

Slow, but great reading.

73 and 77 are the money years for this tune. Different sounds but so good.
