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.

Manor Downs

Funny, my first tape was Baltimore 82 show. This is a real tasty S>F. There is a lot of uniqueness to this. Bob is real solid in this one and adds a lot of interesting riffs. Of course, Jerry is on his game too. Freedom...check out 10/19/81..hidden gem from Spain...its awesome.

Madison Square Garden

Hey Freedom, glad you enjoyed. I do not know the best audience, but the aud is priceless for the ridiculous cheer after fire that extends to the point when Bob sings in LLR. Clearly, everyone knew they experienced "The Moment," rare for the 90's. The crowd gets giddy during the whole Fire, which is quite audible, too. I am listening to Manor Downs now.
Playin' In The Band

Wembley Empire Pool

They just killed this song all tour. Once again, these 10 min versions get tiger in a hurry and do not include the occasional 10 minutes of space/non-sense. Amazing versions all tour...man does this one get crazy, tho.
