Long sought after by collectors and connoisseurs, original copies now sell for upwards of £1,000. This new edition was mastered at Abbey Road using high definition 24bit/192kHz audio files, copied directly from the original stereo analogue master tapes (previously only the mono version has been on vinyl). Images of those tapes are included in the package alongside new sleeve notes written by noted author, compiler and documentary maker Tony Higgins, who also acts as Executive Producer for Decca’s ‘British Jazz Explosion’ series. Recorded in 1963, ‘Movement’ was released as part of the Lansdowne Series, overseen by the influential Denis Preston, one of the UK’s first independent record producers, and engineered by Adrian Kerridge. Of the nine tracks, seven are Harriott originals, whilst the other two were written by another pioneer of British Jazz, Michael Garrick. Playing alongside Joe were bassist Coleridge Goode (b. 1914 Jamaica, d. 2015 London), drummer Bobby Orr (b. Scotland 1928, d. 2020), pianist Pat Smythe (b. Scotland 1923, d. 1983), and trumpet/flugelhorn player Ellsworth ‘Shake’ Keane (b. St. Vincent 1927, d. 1997). Born in Jamaica in 1928, Joseph Arthurlin Harriott was a pupil at the Alpha Boys School (alma mater to Harold McNair, Dizzy Reece, and a myriad of Ska greats). He arrived in Britain in the early ’50s, initially touring with the Ozzie Da Costa Band, followed by a brief spell with the Ronnie Scott Big Band, and sessions backing the likes of George Chisholm, and Lita Roza. By the mid ’50s Joe was a big enough draw to release records under his own name, and whilst these early recordings conform to the then popular bop style, the following decade would see him release albums whose titles chart his development; ‘Free Form’ in 1960, and ‘Abstract’ in 1963. ‘Movement’ is a testament to Joe Harriott’s visionary approach to jazz. It blends structure with freedom, tradition with innovation, and individual expression with collective creativity. His development of free-form jazz represents a significant contribution to the genre, paralleling yet distinct from the work of Ornette Coleman and other American free jazz artists. It is an essential listen, not only for fans of British jazz, but jazz fans in general. It is perhaps best summed up by the epitaph that now adorns Joe’s gravestone; “Parker? There’s them over here can play a few aces too.” Artist Joe Harriott Quintet Genre Jazz Label UMR Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings 'Morning Blue' (Joe Harriott) 'Beams' (Joe Harriott) 'Count Twelve' (Joe Harriott) 'Face In The Crowd' (Michael Garrick) 'Revival' (Joe Harriot) 'Blues On Blues' (Michael Garrick) 'Spaces' (Joe Harriott) 'Spiritual Blues' (Joe Harriott) 'Movement' (Joe Harriott) Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Joe Harriott Quintet and more from Jazz View Product Quick View Joe Harriott Quintet Swings High Jazz | Cadillac | 1LP Released 7th October 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Joe Harriott Quintet Swings High £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Cadillac SKU: SGCMELLP203 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Joe Harriott Quintet BBC Jazz For Moderns Jazz | Gearbox | 180g, 1LP Released 10th June 2014 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Joe Harriott Quintet BBC Jazz For Moderns £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Gearbox SKU: GB1503 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th June 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Thelonious Monk Monk’s Blues Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 12th July 2024 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thelonious Monk Monk’s Blues £28.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP3509C Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th July 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Echoes Of Swing Travelin Jazz | ACT | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 6th March 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Echoes Of Swing Travelin £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACT91041 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 6th March 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Stan Getz & Bill Evans Unreleased Recordings Jazz | Verve | 180g, 1LP Released 22nd February 2019 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Stan Getz & Bill Evans Unreleased Recordings £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve SKU: 7708961 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 22nd February 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Horace Tapscott Tapscott + Winds Jazz | Nimbus West | 180g, 1LP Released 25th November 2022 £46.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Horace Tapscott Tapscott + Winds £46.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Nimbus West SKU: NS-4146 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 25th November 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View John Coltrane Coltrane Jazz Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 11th February 2022 £79.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations John Coltrane Coltrane Jazz £79.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: AORM109045 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 11th February 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Iiro Rantala Potsdam Jazz | ACT | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 25th March 2022 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Iiro Rantala Potsdam £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP9946-1 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 25th March 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Al Di Meola Opus Jazz | Ear Music | 1LP Released 21st February 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Al Di Meola Opus £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Ear Music SKU: 0212564EMU Formats: 1LP Released Date: 21st February 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gil Evans New Bottle Of Old Wine Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 30th July 2007 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gil Evans New Bottle Of Old Wine £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: ST1011 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 30th July 2007 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Benjamin Lackner Last Decade Jazz | ECM | 1LP Released 18th November 2022 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Benjamin Lackner Last Decade £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 4527023 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis Big Fun Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 2nd September 2016 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis Big Fun £32.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1514 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 2nd September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
