“All I can do is be me, whoever that is.” ~ Bob Dylan
“Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again” appears on the 1966 album Blonde on Blonde. It was recorded on Columbia’s Music Row in Nashville. The lyrics are fun, they’re very Dylanesque, but rather than trying to find meaning, this is simply a joy to listen to.
The Grateful Dead covered this song extensively during their live shows, as seen here in this clip from a concert at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia in 1989.
I am the bestselling author of nine novels, including the Swiss Chocolate trilogy and VILLA DEL SOL, which won the 2018 Book Award in Literary Fiction from the Independent Publishers of New England.
My newest series includes the books A JINGLE VALLEY WEDDING, APRIL IN GALWAY, and ALL’S WELL IN JINGLE VALLEY.
