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.

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

Cryptical Envelopment

Fillmore West

The next one played would be 5/2/70. In no way is this one just a dress rehearsal. Patient and then balls out...the way it should be.

Capitol Theater

Amazing stuff! Right into the Seven.
Terrapin Station

Winterland Arena

Well stated by sleuth...lyrically off but who cares, musically its awesome. The less Jerry sings, the more Jerry plays.
Desolation Row

Deer Creek Music Center

This is a killer version...thanks for pointing out. I love Desolation and this one has some good length. That Healy shit is a little freaky. I like how its the one year anny from the best one ever.

The He's Gone>TWBS>GDTRFB>Drums is a kind combo.
