Duets by Emmylou Harris - a 1988 Reprise compilation that originally
included Mozambique from Desire
This is a page you might not expect! It includes promo and commercially-released stereo compilation albums by other artists. However, each of them features a Bob Dylan track from one of his officially released Dylan albums. They do not qualify for my Searching For A Gem list, but nevertheless, their interest value or scarcity means they're worth listing here - as far as I know some are not included on any other Dylan-related Internet site.
Other International Compilations are now here:

Revised 14 February, 2008.
Single Artist Compilations with one song including Bob Dylan
Qualification: all the songs on the album are from one artist, but one or more of them is a regular album track from Bob (not a non-album appearance in a Duet or as a Sidesman, which have their own pages).
