Duets with Bob
Two pictures from the Vanguard CD Joan Baez Live At Newport, see 1997
An extracted list from Searching For A Gem of recordings from 1962 onwards where Bob has appeared in a leading role with other artists on official releases. Joan Baez is his most popular duetting partner with eight entries! Bob's duet with Johnny Cash on Girl From The North Country from Nashville Skyline has appeared on several Johnny Cash compilations, and Emmylou Harris released a compilation album called Duets including Mozambique from Desire (although this isn't strictly a duet). For recordings where Bob has appeared as a backing musician, see Bob "On The Side".

Forthcoming Duets
Bob Dylan and other artists such as Sting, Harry Belafonte, Stevie Wonder and Peter Gabriel may appear on a new album with the Cuban singer and songwriter Pablo Milanés tentatively called Pablo Querido 2, with Bob performing on a song called Dónde Andarán [Where They Will Walk]. More details will be added when available.
Bob is also reported to be performing For The Sake Of The Song as a posthumous "duet" on a Townes Van Zandt tribute album, more details will be added when available.
A duet that was reported would appear on George Harrison's 2002 posthumous album Brainwashed was a version of Bob's Abandoned Love (released on Biograph in 1985), originally recorded during the sessions for George's 1982 Dark Horse album Gone Troppo, with new vocals overdubbed by George and Bob before George died. It didn't appear on that album, but may surface eventually.
