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.

Lots of great points by everyone... with that being said... the site will likely have every version listed of some songs, but the cream will rise to the top as Glyn stated. The site is no longer the same as was and really can't be again. It will require more sifting, but the great versions should get the votes and when grendel and others post a tune, we know when to listen.
