Somebody Else, Not Me is a 1980 album by American folk and blues singer Dave Van Ronk.

Somebody Else, Not Me continues Van Ronk's return to basic blues, folk and jazz accompanying himself on guitar. It was reissued (with a slight change of name) as Someone Else, Not Me on CD by Philo in 1999. It was originally to be released in late 1970s as the follow-up to Sunday Street.

Reception

Writing for Allmusic, critic William Ruhlman wrote of the album "If the result was not quite the equal of Sunday Street, it was in the same league and continued Van Ronk's mature renaissance."
