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.

This is a great version...just three points about 3/27/94 that make it better. The delicate beginning is as good as any. Phil throws bombs throughout. It's has a longer ending with an epic and patient build up more along the lines of the 77 monsters. With that being said, great find here. Thanks.

You could argue this the best version ever.
Big Railroad Blues

Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

This is a really hot version.
