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.

The same happens with Veneta, too. I don't go to that show for the Promised Land, Sugaree, MAMU, Deal, Bertha (12/29/77), Straw, Sugar Mag, Casey, or OMSN....but I'm pretty sure these versions are all top 5.

Winterland Arena

This one is top 5...great pre Rio Grande jam and thick outro as all the good ones do.

Not 1977, but a great version.

The transition is absolutely sick!
