"Outlaw Blues" is a song by Bob Dylan, recorded on January 14, 1965. It was originally released on Dylan's fifth studio album, Bringing It All Back Home.

Recording

An acoustic version of the song, recorded the day before the album track, was released in 2005 as part of the Three Song Sampler EP, which contains outtakes from the soundtrack of the

biographical film No Direction Home, and was eventually released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 12: The Cutting Edge 1965–1966.[1]

An unusual aspect of this song is that Dylan

overdubbed his harmonica part over his lead vocals, rather than alternate between voice and harmonica.[2]

On September 20, 2007, Dylan played this song live in concert for the first time during a show in
