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.

Might be definitive version. Bob does add some cool slide at the end.

Its clearly "The show" tonight. The band is on fire even with the cowboy combo. Awesome version for a song that's been played 1000 times.

This version is super sick and to have three votes makes no sense. Maybe everyone should throw in their closing of winterland CD.

This is a great 25 minute version in a 2 year period of great S>F's. What a treat in the first set. This show has many epic versions from Miracle to NFA to Dark Star.
