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.

Yale Bowl, Yale University

Played a week before the 8/6/71 version, but super hot also. Both versions are a part of Road Trips Vol1-3.

Agree with the prof!
Playin' In The Band

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Enough can not be stated about this epic playin. I love it cause it has the intensity of those 10 minute E72 versions, but is twice as long...gets tiger, but stays focused without 10 minutes of feedback! Out of all the epic things played this day, this is clearly the greatest thing they played. There maybe discussion about other tunes, but this is clearly the definitive version.

Finest run of 1995. Lots of good stuff over the 2 days.
