365 Days of Dylan, Day 25: 900 Miles from My Home from The Basement Tapes Sampler, The Bootleg Volume 11. Traditional song, arranged by Bob Dylan.

"900 Miles from My Home" is another of the many examples of Dylan as an artist whose outtakes and alternate versions hold up as well or better than songs that make up the tracks on his original albums.
