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.

Outro is shredded.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Civic Auditorium

30 mins of gooey pleasure.
Samson and Delilah
March 22, 1990
Copps Coliseum

This is a tremendous version that continues the high energy from the biggest love/hate S/F of all time. The band is insanely tight during this epic pre-drums.

Wembley Empire Pool

Gave this another listen. Jerry is on fire. This version deserves more love. One of the best ever.

Great call! I do prefer 3/26 as it gets a little tiger, but this does have some immense moments.
