Dylan is a Bob Dylan album, released on Columbia Records in 1973, which compiles outtakes drawn mostly from Dylan's New Morning sessions in the spring of 1970.
Dylan's voice is in fine form, and his backing musicians really rock (especially on the title track and "From a Buick 6".) However, my only complaint is that the harmonica was mixed too loudly and with too much treble, so that it is sometimes piercing to the ear.
Dylan gets into a groove like the best of the funk bands, but his are very intellectual, lyrical grooves that flow like poetry (mainly because they ARE poetry) and, at their best, are intriguing stories.

Dylan met John Hammond at a rehearsal session for Carolyn Hester on September 14, 1961, at the apartment shared by Hester and her then-husband, Richard Fariña.
Dylan stated in a 2000 interview that he was hesitant to reveal too much of himself at first.
Dylan held an informal session at her apartment, performing twenty-six songs which were recorded by Glover on a reel-to-reel tape recorder.
