Old, New, Borrowed, and Blue is the eleventh solo studio album by the English singer-songwriter Paul Carrack. It was originally released in 2007 on Carrack's own Carrack-UK label.

As the title implies, the album is a mixture of recordings of various vintages -- some old, some new -- cover (i.e., "borrowed") songs, and songs that have a soul or blues influence. Several songs are re-recordings of Carrack originals, sometimes in very different arrangements from their prior versions. Track 4 was recorded with the Belgian jazz duo Gare du Nord and initially issued on their 2007 album Sex 'N' Jazz.
