Three Evenings with Fred Astaire is an album by American dancer and singer Fred Astaire, released on his own label Choreo Records in 1962.
The album collects songs performed by Astaire on three TV shows: An Evening with Fred Astaire (1958), Another Evening with Fred Astaire (1959), and Astaire Time (1960).
Billboard reviewed the album, writing: "Here's a solid collector's item for show music fans and veteran star Astaire's sizable following. Nostalgic, showmanly sound tracks from Astaire's three award-winning TV shows are spotlighted, featuring the star's personable delivery of great oldies (32 in all) and charming chatter about his career."
