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.

Crazy Fingers

The Pyramid

The outro is just gorgeous to me. And then into a monster Estimated.
Franklin's Tower
Oct. 28, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

This 18 minute beast should be listened to. Overshadowed by the previous night. Maybe doesn't have the peaks, but its a beautiful patient reading of this great song.
Franklin's Tower
Sept. 11, 1981
Greek Theater

Love these versions from 81-82.

Nassau Coliseum

As was the case many times with the dead... the second time performed was usually better and tighter... and Baltimore is better.
