The Byrds Play Dylan is the name of two different compilation albums by the American rock band the Byrds, one released in 1979 and the other issued in 2002.[1][2] As their titles suggest, each compilation consists of interpretations of Bob Dylan penned songs, which the Byrds recorded at different stages of their career.[1][3]
Neither version of the album reached the charts in the United States or the United Kingdom.[4][5]
