It was the faculty band at his daughter’s high school that changed his perception of the song.

Before Rucker’s version was released, he went on stage with Old Crow Medicine Show to perform the song, with great success. Darius Rucker’s recording, which went Triple Platinum, is undoubtedly the most well-known today. Old Crow Medicine Show’s Wagon Wheel has been covered many times and it is pretty much a bluegrass standard. This version was a huge hit, going to 15 on the US Hot 100 and 1 on the Country chart. Darius Rucker and his Capitol Records labelmates and frequent tourmates, Lady Antebellum, teamed up to record this song for Rucker's 2012 album True Believers.
Old Crow Medicine Show's final version was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in April 2013. Dylan and Secor are the credited songwriters on the track. Dylan recorded the chorus in 1973 Secor added verses 25 years later. Such is the blues, and music in general.īeyond the title, there is not much similarity between Crudup’s and Dylan’s “Rock Me Mama.” Darius Rucker About Wagon Wheel 'Wagon Wheel' is a song co-written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show. Crudup, for his part, said he got the idea from Big Bill Broonzy’s “Rock Me Baby.” Broonzy got the idea from a still older source. This is probably because Dylan credited the title phrase of the song to Crudup. This version is sometimes mistakenly credited to bluesman Arthur “Big Boy” Crudup. In 2007, Jason Webley and Reverend Peyton did a version of the song called Rock Me Mama. Old Crow Medicine Show, known for their bluegrass, Americana, or what some folks call “mountain music” included the song on their 2001 album Troubles Up and Down the Road and later on their 2004 album O.C.M.S. He kept Dylan’s original chorus, changed the melody a bit, and wrote new verse lyrics for the song, retitling it to “Wagon Wheel.” Co-writer credit and co-ownership were, of course, given to Dylan, with permission to record the song by Special Rider Music. Ketch Secor of the country band Old Crow Medicine Show got one of those bootleg recordings. It wasn’t until 25 years later, in 2004, that the song was completed. Although the song was never recorded, bootleg versions of it were handed around for years.
Most of what Dylan sings is mumbled in the background, but you can make out some of the lyrics. You can listen to the outtake from this session below. Wagon Wheel, which Dylan called “Rock Me Mama” was intended to be given to the film’s producer to use in the film, but Dylan never really got further than the chorus. What I would call noodling, Dylan called a sketch of a song. Dylan, as he was want to do, was simply noodling around with riffs in between takes.
