NEED A NEW NAME Bob Dylan/Michel Montecrossa, 2002 O
Like JACK O' DIAMONDS, not strictly a Dylan song, but a written lyric of Bob's set to music without authorisation by Italian "Cyber-rocker" Michel Montecrossa on his Mira Sound Germany album "Fieldmouse From Nebraska" (Germany, 2002), see - thanks to David Plentus for spotting this item! See top of page for the album cover

 

NEVER ? ?
Deliberately misleading song title used on an early vinyl bootleg - I have no information as to which song it actually is

 


"Empire Burlesque # And Reality Rocker" (Mira Sound Germany, 2004) album by Michel Montecrossa on which he performs NEW DANVILLE GIRL

NEW DANVILLE GIRL Bob Dylan/Sam Shepard, 1984 S
Out-take from "Empire Burlesque", recorded Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, CA, 6-12 Dec 1984. Early version of BROWNSVILLE GIRL, subsequently released on "Knocked Out Loaded", 1986 - inspired by Cisco Houston's DANVILLE GIRL. Cover version performed by Italian "Cyber-rocker" Michel Montecrossa on his album "Empire Burlesque # And Reality Rocker" (Mira Sound Germany, 2004) - thanks to Jack from Canada for information

Recording session sheet title of WIGWAM, released on "Self Portrait"

 

NEW SONG 2 1969 O
Recording session sheet title of TIME PASSES SLOWLY, released on "New Morning"

 

NEW YORK CITY BLUES 1961 N? Y
See NYC BLUES below

 

NEXT TIME ON THE HIGHWAY 1967 H
Basement Tapes song recorded with The Band, Big Pink, West Saugerties, NY, July-September 1967

 

NIGHT OF THE LIVING DREAD Bob Dylan?, 1990 N?
According to Michael Krogsgaard, song recorded at the Complex, Los Angeles, CA, 19 Apr 1990, during the "Under The Red Sky" sessions. This may be a recording session sheet title for a published song!

 

NIGHTINGALE’S CODE 1965  
The hoax title of the first track of a fictitious Dylan Christmas album called "Snow Over Interstate 80" in a joke article in an early 70s issue of the UK magazine "New Musical Express". It probably refers to one of the takes of FREEZE OUT, the 1965 version of "Blonde On Blonde"’s VISIONS OF JOHANNA, containing the line "He examines the nightingale’s code". For more details, see my "Snow Over Interstate 80" page.

 

NO COMPASSION    
One of the fake titles circulated on the Internet in January 1997 as part of a hoax about a new album to be called "Stormy Season" - see STORMY SEASON for more details

 

NO LIGHT WILL SHINE ON ME 1969 O
Recording session sheet title of ONE MORE NIGHT, released on "Nashville Skyline"

 

NO SHOES ON MY FEET 1967 H
Basement Tapes song recorded with The Band, Big Pink, West Saugerties, NY, July-September 1967

 

NORTH OF V Bob Dylan/Michel Montecrossa, 2002 O
Like JACK O' DIAMONDS, not strictly a Dylan song, but a written lyric of Bob's set to music without authorisation by Italian "Cyber-rocker" Michel Montecrossa on his Mira Sound Germany album "Fieldmouse From Nebraska" (Germany, 2002), see - thanks to David Plentus for spotting this item! See top of page for the album cover

 

NOT TURNING BACK 1997 N?
Out-take from the "Time Out Of Mind" sessions, which took place at Criterion Sound Studio, Miami, FL, in January 1997, reported by Glen Dundas in the 2004 edition of his book "Tangled"

 

NOWHERE TO GO Bob Dylan/George Harrison, 1968 H
Actual copyrighted title for the song performed at Woodstock, New York State, as a duet by Bob and George in November 1968 and circulating mainly under the title EVERY TIME SOMEBODY COMES TO TOWN

 

NUMBER ONE 1965 S
Untitled instrumental called "Trk No Vocal" on the tape box and "#1" on the artists' contract card, recorded with the Hawks between the "Highway 61 Revisited" and "Blonde On Blonde" sessions at Columbia Studios, New York, 5 Oct 1965 (CO87187 and CO87192) - usually misdated as 30 Nov - 01 Dec 1965. Paul Cable speculated that this track could be the legendary "lost" song CHURCH WITH NO UPSTAIRS, but Tim Dunn, author of "The Bob Dylan Copyright Files", informs me that the two songs have separate copyrights, so they cannot be the same

 

NYC BLUES 1961 N? Y
Lyrics in a manuscript left by Bob at the home of Eve and Mac McKenzie after staying there in Summer 1961. The page was auctioned in 2006 for almost $13,000! No recording or performance is known. Thanks to Tim Dunn for information
