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.

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.

Has some hot moments...sounds like it may go into MAMU like 3/26, but yeah sounds like they are warming it up before the 29 minute version from 3/26. Goes into an all time great wharf rat.

The 4 minute outro jam has some nice jerry riffs, but really Bob leading the charge and Vince even sound great. All round great version.

This is the last tour before they started doing Liberty or I Fought the Song every night. Quite refreshing when I look back at the encores played at this run.
