An Evening With Diana Ross

An Evening with Diana Ross is a 1977 live double album released by American singer Diana Ross on the Motown label. It was recorded live at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles in December 1976 during the international tour of Ross' one-woman show, for which she was awarded a special Tony Award after the show's run at Broadway's Palace Theater, followed by an Emmy-nominated TV special of the same name. It marked the first time in history a solo female headlined a 90-minute TV special. The album reached number 29 in the USA. The album showcased her live performances for the second time as a solo performer, following 1974's Live At Caesars Palace. It was the last live album Ross released until 1989's Greatest Hits Live. The album includes a number of songs unique to this collection that Ross never recorded as studio tracks. These include a number of songs from Harry Nilsson's 1970 album and animated feature The Point!, selections from the 1975 Broadway hit musical A Chorus Line and covers of Dionne Warwick's "Here I Am' and longtime Motown collaborator Johnny Bristol's "I Wouldn't Change A Thing".
