The Dixie-Narco EP is an extended play by the British band Primal Scream, released in February 1992[2] on Creation Records. It contains 'Movin' on Up', originally released on the Screamadelica album. This was the only official Primal Scream release to contain the song 'Screamadelica' (which was recorded during sessions for the Screamadelica album[3]) until the song appeared on the 20th anniversary edition of the Screamadelica album.

The remaining two tracks were recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis during November 1991.[4] 'Carry Me Home' was originally written by Dennis Wilson for The Beach Boys' 1973 album Holland, although it was not included on that album.[5]
