'''''Invisible Republic: Bob Dylan's Basement Tapes''''', by [[Greil Marcus]], is a book about the creation and cultural importance of ''[[The Basement Tapes]]'', a series of recordings made by [[Bob Dylan]] in 1967 in collaboration with musicians who would subsequently be known as [[The Band]]. Published by [[Henry Holt]], [[New York City|New York]] in 1997, [[ISBN]] 0-8050-5842-7. Subsequently published in paperback as ''The Old, Weird America'' by the same publisher in 2001.
 
The new title significantly derives from the name of one of the chapters in the book devoted to analysis of the [[Anthology of American Folk Music]] compiled by [[Harry Everett Smith|Harry Smith]], reissued by [[Smithsonian Folkways]] on [[compact disc]] in the same year as the publication of Marcus's book, with portions of his book excerpted in the CD [[liner notes]].
