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.

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

Usually pass on this tune, but is high energy and bam, right into MAMU.

The night before has the great Phil jam and is by far the coolest version, but this one is aggressive.
Jack Straw

Broome County Arena

Main jam got longer as year went on and even longer in 78/79. Great version and super hot 1/2 step/ Straw.

Love Bama 77 more for post Rio-Grande jam, but obvious upvote here. Sick version. It does beat Bama on pre Rio-Grande jam, tho.
