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.

Its a short version, but the unique UJB has an outro jam that has a He was a friend....feel to it with a lovely transition into it.

Gave this another listen after I got my DaP. This one is truly epic. Has many different themes. Just doesn't end. Easily one of the best ever.

I am glad this one is immortalized on the bonus disc.

Very good O1, but my requirement for best ever like 2/13 and 5/2 is a mind blowing Cryptical. This unfortunately has one of the weakest crypticals from this era. Still a great night, tho. The Cosmic Charlie to follow makes up for it.

Wish Jack a Roe would have always kept this May 77 grove.
