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.

Not 2/13 or 5/2, but can hang.

Easily one of the best by both Pig and Jer! Seriously, maybe definitive here...the end is just killer.

Even gets a little tiger for a bit. Very similar to most of the E72 versions, but I think better than most of them.

An amazing version!

Great call....some thought this was the best show of 1992 in the day. Very underrated here. Steve Miller and James Cotton sitting in the Schoolgirl bust out....Watchtower...Lovelight...Gloria...some lengthy jamming all night...special show.
