"An Evening with Diana Ross" is a 1977 live double album released by American singer Diana Ross on the Motown label. Recorded during Ross' celebrated one-woman show on Broadway (to which she got a special Tony Award and had an Emmy-nominated TV special that aired around that time), the album showcased Ross' live performances for the first time. It was the second live album Ross recorded for Motown as a soloist, and the last live album she issued until 1989's "Greatest Hits Live", which was released before Ross returned to Motown that year. (Note: Although "Someday We'll Be Together" is mentioned as a cut on the album from Diana's Supremes hits medley, on this album she doesn't actually sing it and instead talks over the background instrumentation and vocals to the song while introducing singer Smokey Robinson in her audience that evening of the album taping.)
