Lady Time is a studio album by Ella Fitzgerald, released in 1978 on Pablo Records. It was produced by Norman Granz, who was also her manager and the label's founder. The album features Fitzgerald accompanied by a small jazz group, including pianist Tommy Flanagan.
The repertoire of Lady Time consists mainly of ballads and jazz standards, focusing on love songs and melancholy. The recording took place in Los Angeles, California, and highlights Fitzgerald's mature and expressive voice, as she was 61 years old at the time.
The album was not one of the most commercial of her career, but it received positive reviews for the quality of the performances and the cohesion of the ensemble. It is considered an example of Fitzgerald's late work on the Pablo label, where she recorded extensively during the 1970s.
