Curtis Fuller, Volume 3 is an album by American jazz trombonist Curtis Fuller recorded on December 1, 1957 but not released on Blue Note until late 1960.[2] [3] [4] The quintet features trumpeter Art Farmer and rhythm section Sonny Clark, George Tucker and Louis Hayes.
The AllMusic review by Lee Bloom states, "This third solo recording for Fuller on the Blue Note label is stronger than its predecessors, especially in showcasing the trombonist's writing talents... This recording firmly established Curtis Fuller as a serious, mature voice on his instrument."[5]
