“Mississippi” is one of four tracks written for the Time Out of Mind sessions that did not appear on the multiple Grammy-winning 1997 album. The tune would later land on Dylan’s 2001 LP, Love & Theft.

“Mississippi (Version 2)” was recorded at Criteria Studios in Miami on January 11, 1997 for the Time Out Of Mind sessions. The ’97 outtake is a bluesier version compared to the jangly, folk-rock Love & Theft rendition.
