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
Aug. 23, 1971
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.

Hard to Handle

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.

Morning Dew
March 27, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

Top 5 Dew of all time. Ridiculous...climaxes and has beast length.
Shakedown Street
March 20, 1992
Copps Coliseum

Hot version. Opens second set for first time in a few years.
Franklin's Tower
Nov. 9, 1979
Memorial Auditorium

Another great version from 1979. Love the transition from Dancin. Dave picked this pair right. Cape Cod is more famous, but I am not sure its better????
Playin' In The Band
Oct. 16, 1989
Meadowlands Arena

This should be ranked higher from best show of 1989-1995.
