Mixed-Up Confusion is a song written and recorded by Bob Dylan. It was recorded with an electric band on November 14th 1962 during the sessions for The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, but was not used on that album, which was entirely acoustic. Instead the song, backed with Corrina, Corrina, a traditional blues song, appeared as Dylan's first single, released in the U.S. on 14 December 1962 as Columbia 4-42656[1]. According to legend, Dylan wrote the song in a cab on the way to the Columbia Studios for the recording session. [2] A different take from the same session appeared on the compilation album Biograph in 1985.[3]
