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 Big John Patton Got A Good Thing Goin’ Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 2nd February 2017 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Big John Patton Got A Good Thing Goin’ £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: LP84229 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 2nd February 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Shabaka & The Ancestors We Were Sent Here By History Jazz | Impulse | 2LP Released 27th March 2020 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Shabaka & The Ancestors We Were Sent Here By History £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impulse SKU: 50864563 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 27th March 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Hodges Blues A-Plenty (Acoustic Sounds Series) Jazz | Verve (Acoustic Sounds Series) | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 28th June 2024 £36.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Johnny Hodges Blues A-Plenty (Acoustic Sounds Series) £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve (Acoustic Sounds Series) SKU: 6512456 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 28th June 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Sun Ra Arkestra 3rd September 1988 Chicago Jazz | Klondike | 2LP Released 15th December 2014 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sun Ra Arkestra 3rd September 1988 Chicago £29.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Klondike SKU: KL2LP5011 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 15th December 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bugge Wesseltoft New Conception Of Jazz Jazz | Jazzland | 2LP Released 13th January 2017 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bugge Wesseltoft New Conception Of Jazz £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Jazzland SKU: 3779003 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 13th January 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Emmet Cohen Future Strides Jazz | Mack Avenue | 1LP Released 29th January 2021 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Emmet Cohen Future Strides £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mack Avenue SKU: MAC1181LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 29th January 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nina Simone Black Gold Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 10th January 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nina Simone Black Gold £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP195 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th January 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Coltrane My Favourite Things Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 13th February 2013 £65.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Coltrane My Favourite Things £65.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: ORGM108045 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 13th February 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Oscar Peterson Trio Live at the Concertgebouw 1961 (The Lost Recordings) Jazz | The Lost Recordings | CD Released 12th September 2023 £TBC Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Oscar Peterson Trio Live at the Concertgebouw 1961 (The Lost Recordings) £TBC Genre: Jazz Label: The Lost Recordings SKU: FON 1604023 Formats: CD Released Date: 12th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Elvin Jones Midnight Walk Jazz | Atlantic | 1LP Released 2nd March 2011 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Elvin Jones Midnight Walk £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Atlantic SKU: SD1485 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 2nd March 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
