"Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again" (also listed as "Memphis Blues Again") is a song written by Bob Dylan that appears on his 1966 album Blonde on Blonde.[2] The album version also appears on 1971's Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II. An early studio take, done in a faster tempo, was released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home: The Soundtrack in 2005. As the recording indicates, Dylan had difficulty fitting the words to the tempo, and evidently this led to its rearrangement, as heard on Blonde on Blonde, in a more "rock"-oriented 4/4 time. The song's refrain likely refers to the Memphis Blues of W.C. Handy.

Recording
All twenty takes of "Stuck Inside of Mobile" were recorded in the early hours of February 17, 1966, in Columbia's Music Row Studios in Nashville. Dylan continuously reworked the song in the studio, revising lyrics and changing the song's structure as he recorded different takes. Eventually, after recording for three hours, a master take, the twentieth and final take, was chosen.[3] Take five would eventually be released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 7.
The entire recording session was released on the 18-disc Collector's Edition of The Bootleg Series Vol. 12: The Cutting Edge 1965–1966 in 2015, with highlights from the outtakes appearing on the six-disc and two-disc versions of that album.[4]
Live performances
According to his website, Dylan played the song 748 times in concert between its live debut in 1976 and its last performance in 2010.[5]
Cover versions
The song has been covered by over a dozen artists,[6] notably Cat Power for the I'm Not There (soundtrack) in 2007 and Old Crow Medicine Show on their 2017 album 50 Years of Blonde on Blonde. The Grateful Dead performed the song more than 70 times in concert, beginning in 1987 and ending in 1995. Since the breakup of the Dead, Bob Weir continues to perform the song in his concerts.

«Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again» — песня, написанная Бобом Диланом, которая появляется на его альбоме 1966 года Blonde on Blonde.[3] Альбомная версия также появляется на его сборнике лучших песней 1971 года Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II. Ранний студийный ауттейк, записанный в быстрые сроки, был выпущен на The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home: The Soundtrack в 2005 году. Судя по записям, Дилан с трудом подбирал слова под темп, и это впоследствии привело к переаранжировке. Такая версия попала на альбом Blonde on Blonde, с более характерным для рока размером 4/4.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
