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.

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.

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

They played this beut three times in 77 and not again until 79. I love 5/17 the most, but this one is special, too. Probably should be in top three with 5/26 and 5/17.

So glad that this show will be released for the 50 anny box set. It really is top 2 show of the year. The show will get serious upvote that is deserved. Probably the last great DS coming in at 16 minutes. After this great version it became a less than 10 minute version.
