Dylan was a late 1973 Columbia Records release of Bob Dylan music from sessions in 1970, issued after Dylan briefly left the label and momentarily signed up with David Geffen's new Asylum Records.

Generally considered by most Dylan followers as one of his worst albums, and completely unauthorized by its maker, Dylan received poor reviews upon release and managed to hit #17 in the US and become a gold record. It remains to this day the only Dylan album to not be issued on CD and, therefore, with the passage of the cassette format, deleted from his catalog.
