Bob Dylan put "Most of the Time" at the top of side two on Oh Mercy, his 1989 album: a love ballad cut on March 12 of that year in a mobile studio on Soniat Street in New Orleans. Daniel Lanois produced, and the sessions took their cue from Yellow Moon, a Neville Brothers record Lanois had produced that carried two Dylan covers.
Dylan sings and plays guitar alongside Lanois, with Malcolm Burn on keyboards, Tony Hall on bass, Willie Green III on drums and Cyril Neville on percussion; Burn and Mark Howard recorded it. It grew into a fan favorite, helped by its turn in the 2000 film High Fidelity. Dylan recut it in March 1990 for a promotional single and video, and two outtakes surfaced in 2008 on the Bootleg Series set Tell Tale Signs.
