Best of the Vanguard Years is an album by American folk musician Ramblin' Jack Elliott, released in 2000.

The 1964 Vanguard release Jack Elliott is included in its entirety. Seven tracks from Jack Elliott were also reissued on CD by Vanguard in 2007 on Vanguard Visionaries. More than half of the album includes songs that had not been previously released.

Bob Dylan appears playing harmonica as "Tedham Porterhouse".

Writing for Allmusic, music critic Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr. wrote of the album "... even his older material never strikes the listener as out-of-date... For those who want to dig a little deeper into folk music's past, this is a fine selection; for those who aren't familiar with Rambin' Jack Elliott, this is a great place to begin one's acquaintance."

All songs Traditional unless otherwise noted.
