| TALKING BEAR MOUNTAIN PICNIC MASSACRE BLUES | spring 1961 | Gaslight Cafe (NYC) |
| Noel (Paul) Stookey remembers showing Dylan the newspaper article which inspired the song after one of Dylan's short Gaslight sets in the spring of 1961; the next night, he recalls, Dylan returned with a fully written talking blues song. Robert Shelton wrote of hearing Dylan perform the song the night they first met, at a Monday night Gerdes hoot in June. A June walk-on performance at Club 47 in Cambridge has also been reported. | ||
| TALKIN' DEVIL | No known live performance |
| TALKIN' HAVA NEGEILAH BLUES | probably spring 1961 | |
| Often mentioned as part of Dylan's club sets, but never reliably documented for any specific date. Found on an undated setlist from his September 1961 Gerdes booking, but reported as far back (by one source) as his April Gerdes appearances. | ||
| TALKING JOHN BIRCH PARANOID BLUES | probably spring 1962 | |
| Although no live performance is documented before the September 22, 1962, Carnegie Hall hootenanny recording, the song's lyrics were published in Broadside's first issue in February 1962. Dylan recorded the song for Freewheelin' in April 1962, and likely incorporated it into his club sets shortly afterwards. | ||
| TALKING NEW YORK | probably summer 1961 | |
| The legend runs that Dylan put together the original version of this song while hitchhiking in New Jersey in May 1961. A later, still unfinished, version turns up in manuscripts written during his stay at the McKenzie home in the late spring and early summer. Shelton listed the song in his New York Times review of Dylan's September Gerdes appearance; a slightly earlier live debut is likely. | ||
| TALKIN' WORLD WAR III BLUES | April 25, 1963 | The Bear (Chicago) |
| Dylan apparently demoed the song in March and recorded it for Freewheelin' in late April. The first known performance is found on the Bear Club tape; while the song could certainly have turned up in a slightly earlier club set, it was not part of his April 12 concert playlist, which included many of Dylan's newer songs. | ||

| TEARS OF RAGE | June 26, 1989 | National Stadium (Patras) |

| This song appears on the Ric Kangas Tape, and is said to be among the earliest recordings of Dylan compositions. | ||

| TIME PASSES SLOWLY | No live performance |
| TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANGIN' | October 26, 1963 | Carnegie Hall (New York City) |
| While the song is first reported at the Carnegie Hall concert, it is also likely that Dylan aired the song at his mostly undocumented October 25 concert in Philadelphia, more or less a dress rehearsal for the New York City showcase concert. | ||
| TINY MONTGOMERY | No live performance |
| TO BE ALONE WITH YOU | October 15, 1989 | Tower Theater (Upper Darby) |
| TO RAMONA | July 1964 | unidentified (Ann Arbor) |
| Although Heylin now lists the debut as Newport 1964, he also reports a performance of the song (and other recent compositions) earlier in the month at an imperfectly documented Michigan concert. | ||
| TOMBSTONE BLUES | July 24, 1965 | Newport Folk Festival (workshop) |
| Outtake footage from Festival, including part of a solo acoustic performance of this song, was broadcast on German television, in late 2004. The first concert performance is Forest Hills, August 28, 1965. | ||
| TOMORROW IS A LONG TIME | April 12, 1963 | Town Hall (New York City) |
| Heard in embryonic form as far back as the summer of 1962, with a radio performance early in 1963. Only one live performance in the decade of the 1960's is known, however, and Dylan apparently did not cut the song in a Columbia studio until 1970. | ||
