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.

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.

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

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Fox Theatre

How did I miss this???? As good as anything from 78. Bob really helps in the transition, more than usual. Bob lays off the horrific slide unlike 4/24/78. This version really should be in the top 10. Final solo just needs to be heard by all.

Perfect example of a nice 76 version that they are greasing for all those epic 77 versions.
