The Essential Guy Clark is a compilation album by American singer-songwriter Guy Clark, released in 1997.
RCA had previously released Guy Clark – Greatest Hits in 1983 which included nearly all the songs from Clark's first two albums. This compilation includes the missing tracks. In addition, it contains the previously unreleased "Don't Let the Sunshine Fool You" (composed by Clark, but first released by Townes Van Zandt on The Late Great Townes Van Zandt in 1972). All the tracks have been re-mastered.
The compilation was re-released by Audiophile Classics in 2004 with different cover art.
