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.

Not sure why this is in second place...about 6.5 mins long before going into Bop Bop???? Definitely in the top 250, tho.

I call it the "MSG effect"....its why I had to make the 18 hour pilgrimage from Wisconsin to NYC during college. I was quite happy with what I was treated with on 10/14 and 10/15...I expected it and it was delivered. I was an "in the darker" with my first show in 1989 and that S>F from 10/14 and that O1>Dew from 3/27/94 Nassau may rank as the 2 greatest things I experienced live and it was 1994.
