Dylan is a 1973 album by singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, compiled from outtakes recorded for the two earlier albums, Self Portrait (June 1970) and New Morning (October 1970). Columbia Records compiled it with no input from Dylan, who had changed record companies to Asylum Records. It was released on November 16, 1973, the same month as the first news broke of the Bob Dylan and the Band 1974 Tour, Dylan's first major tour since 1966. The album consists of six cover songs and three traditional songs, with no original Dylan songs. It was poorly received, and is largely considered one of Dylan's weakest albums.
In Europe the album was re-released in January 1991 with the title Dylan (A Fool Such as I).
