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.

This frickin show is so epic that I can't even imagine them busting this one out in the first set. Maybe best show ever then???

Definitive UJB and Estimated! Pre-Drums sequence of UJB>Estimated>Caution Jam>He's Gone>O1 is so fuckin tasty!

First...I highly recommend this show...epic Cold Rain, Big River, and Alabama. However, the sequence of UJB>Estimated>Caution>He's gone>O1 is about as good as it gets. You guys need to go find this old Dick's Picks and give it a spin.

Had to revisit this one. Epic first set and this closer was super rare and they nailed it.
