Putting it carefully...
I recently heard a Beatles CD Box set that has quite a few Dylan references:

Artifacts III - the definitive collection of Beatles rarities 1969-1994.
BigBx 009

(102 tracks on 4CDs - 24 page booklet)

Disk 1
track 6 - Everytime somebody comes to town (Dylan/Harrison) - George Vocal
track 7 - I'd have you anytime (Harrison/Dylan) - George Vocal
track 8 - If not for you (Dylan) - Dylan Vocal - bootleg series version!

Disk 2
track 7 - Miss Odell - old rumour - this is not the b-side.

Disk 3
track 15 - New of the Day - Lennon parody of Dylan
track 22 - Serve yourself - Lennon parody of Dylan

Disk 4
track 5 - Abandoned Love (Harrison (sic)) - George's version
track 15 - Every Grain of sand (Dylan) - Georges's version
track 16 - End of the Line (Harrison/Dylan) - outtake
track 21 - Maxine(Harrison) Wilbury's o/t

Booklet has 2 photos of Dylan in it. 

So dig deep you bootleg completists!

"The News Of The Day (by Reuters) is around since it was aired in the
"Lost Lennon Tapes" US radio series (West Wood One and others) episode #14
(1988). It's on several Lennon boots. And the other great Dylan parody
"Lord, Take This Make Up Off Of Me" (from same episode) is also available
on many boots.

From George Harrison's auto biography "I Me Mine":

"I'd Have you Anytime was started in America, in Woodstock - I was
invited there by The Band. It was Thanksgiving time and I'd just
finished producing a Jackie Lomax album, directly after the Beatles
White album.
  Bob Dylan had gone through the thing of breaking his neck in a
motor-cycle accident and being out of commission for a time. He'd got
himself back together and had finished Nashiville Skyline shortly
before I arrive there. I was hanging out at his house, with him, Sarah
and his kids. he seemed very nervous and I felt a little uncomfortable
- it seems strange especially as he was in his own home.
  Anyway, on about the third day we got the guitars out and than
things loosened up and I was saying to him 'write me some words', and
thinking of all this: Johnny's in the basement, mixing up the
medicine, type of thing and he was saying 'show me some chords, how do
you get those tunes?'
  I started playing chords, like major sevenths, dimisheds and
augmenteds and the song appeared as I played the openign chord (G
major 7th) and then moved the chord shape up the guitar neck (B flat
Major 7th). The first thing I thought was:

Let me in here
I know I've been here
Let me into your heart

I was sayin to Bob 'Comne on, write some words'. He wrote the bridge:

All I Have is yours
All you see is mine
And I'm glad to hold you in my arms
I'd have you anytime

Beautiful! - and that was that. You can see his hand writing
reproduced here with his kind permission."

(pictures are 2 sheets w/the lyrics)

The existing tape of both performing

[Nowhere To Go (= Everytime Somebody Comes To Town)
together with]

I'd Have You Anytime

is usually dated to Thanxgiving 68 amongst Beatles collectors

Is is to find on the following (Beatles) bootlegs:

CD Completed Rarities 2 (Polyphone PH 1302)
4CD Artifacts III (Big Music BIGBX 009)
CD  Lifting Material From The World (no label)

LP 20 x 4 [Ruthless Rhymes JPGR Remine (OBS 204-A/B))

... and maybe more ...
