The Essential Billie Holiday: Carnegie Hall Concert Recorded Live is a live album by jazz singer Billie Holiday that was recorded on November 10, 1956 at Carnegie Hall in New York City. The two concerts promoted Billie Holiday's autobiography, Lady Sings the Blues. Between songs, Gilbert Millstein of The New York Times read aloud four lengthy passages from her autobiography, Lady Sings the Blues. The narrated parts of the concerts were not included until the re-release on CD in 1989.
