The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vol. 3 is a ten-inch LP by American jazz trombonist J. J. Johnson recorded on June 6, 1955 and released on Blue Note later that year. Johnson is backed by a quintet featuring saxophonist Hank Mobley and rhythm section Horace Silver, Paul Chambers and Kenny Clarke.
The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vol. 3 (BLP 5070) was the third of three Jay Jay Johnson albums released on Blue Note's 10-inch LP Modern Jazz 5000 Series, following Jay Jay Johnson with Clifford Brown (1953) and The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Volume 2 (1954). In 1955, Blue Note reissued the three sessions on two 12-inch compilations: The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vols. 1 & 2 (BLP 1505/BLP 1506).
