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.

This is as good as it gets...Jerry gets mean with one of his last solos.

The notes are so sweet even on the audience recording. Man was Jer excited about playing Wolf for the first time in 2 years.

This starts off one of the most amazing shows ever by this band. You could put almost each version in the top 3 regardless of the present vote count. Wolf's tone makes this show unique to any 77 show. I highly recommend listening to this whole show and you will hear.
