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.

Played a week before the 8/6/71 version, but super hot also. Both versions are a part of Road Trips Vol1-3.

Man... this show was a hidden gem for me. Super hot version with some fanning.

I have the digital download of this run and Phil is a complete beast both days in the mix. Its worth a listen for Phil fans. He even kills this touch... its awesome. Crazy during S/F too.

This standard tune is better than most on this evening.

This one is one of the best... Branford not needed here. The final jam just smokes!
