Jimmy Reed chronology

Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall is a double album by Jimmy Reed, released in 1961. Though the title suggests that the record was recorded live, it consists of studio recreations of a Carnegie Hall performance along with additional studio recordings.^[1]

"Bright Lights, Big City", which opens the album, was released as a single around the same time. It became one of Reed's most successful and last songs on the Billboard Hot R&B charts.^[2] The album includes several other Reed songs that appeared on the charts between 1956 and 1961.^[2]
