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
Aug. 23, 1971
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.

Only about 8 mins, but some nice runs by Jerry in the middle. Worth checking out. Dave's picks#2.

Mama Tried

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Decided to listen to this on Mother's day today. Only version of 93 at this killer show/run. Last run before the onslaught of all the new material. Run continues that December 92 magic.
Not Fade Away

Winterland Arena

This is an intense version. Everything this night is powerful. The whole show has 1977 pureness with extra intensity. Has to be Wolf coming out. Every version this night could be in the conversation of best of 1977 or best ever.
