Curtis DuBois Fuller (born in Detroit, December 1934) is a United States hard bop trombonist, primarily known as a member of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Fuller is particularly proud of being the only trombonist to have recorded with Coltrane, Powell and Smith, all in August or September 1957. He was also the first trombonist to be a member of the Art Farmer-Benny Golson Jazztet, later becoming the sixth man Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in 1961, staying with Blakey until 1965. In the late sixties he was part of Dizzy Gillespie's band, and he went on to tour with Count Basie and to
reunite with Blakey and Golson. He continues to perform and record.
