The Betty Carter Album is a 1976 album by Betty Carter. It is unique among her albums in its use of overdubbing on some tracks to allow her to record multiple vocal lines. It was also her first album for which she wrote the majority of the songs herself.
The album was originally released on Carter's own Bet-Car label. It was first reissued on CD by Verve in 1988.
