Lots of people play Wagon Wheel live. The Rose Island Band (including me) live version is below. The bones of the song were written by Bob Dylan, and Ketch Secor of the Old Crow Medicine Show finished it. Now Darius Rucker has released it, sounding similar to the OCMS version.
The phrases Rock Me Baby and Roll Me Like a Wagon Wheel appear in an old blues song that was recorded by BB King and others. I bet Dylan heard that before he wrote his parts of Wagon Wheel.
Anyway, it's a cool song and we like playing it and the audiences love it.

yeah Dylan's version is unfinished but O.C.M.S. did a great job with it.I first heard it on my Dylan's Pat Garret and Billy The Kid soundtrack years ago.Those old blues albums had a lot of stuff borrowed/ripped off [whichever you perfer] from them.

Nice Performance, at first this song drove me crazy cause everyone I played with started doing it around the same time; but now I play it everywhere too so I guess it's grown on me. Really fun to play with on a Banjo.

It's a very catchy tune. It's a good sing along song too. Like so many songs that seem to rise to the top I think it gives everyone a good feeling, players and listeners alike.
You guys did a great job on it Colin.

"The standard by which I now measure the things in my life is the following: If I was on my death bed, or if I knew I had a short time to live, would this issue be important? If the answer is no.. I don't sweat it at all. If the answer is Yes, you better believe it goes to the front of the order of today's business!" -Brian Austin Whitney
