Ted Curson Plays Fire Down Below is an album by American trumpeter Ted Curson which was recorded in 1962 and released on the Prestige label.[ 1]
Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "The main fault of this otherwise superior CD reissue is that there are only 31 minutes of music... Curson, 27 at the time, is heard in top form on one of the very few of his sessions to be reissued ".[ 2]
