"Temporary Like Achilles" is a song written and recorded by Bob Dylan for his 1966 album Blonde on Blonde. The song was originally recorded in a much shorter length with The Band in New York in 1965 under the title "Medicine Sunday". That take was deemed unsatisfactory and shelved. Dylan added to the song and rerecorded it in Nashville, Tennessee in 1966.
