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 Miles Davis Miles Ahead OST Jazz | Sony | 2LP Released 14th October 2019 £18.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Miles Davis Miles Ahead OST £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Sony SKU: 0889853066810 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 14th October 2019 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Various Artists Transmissions from Total Refreshment Centre Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 17th February 2023 £30.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Various Artists Transmissions from Total Refreshment Centre £30.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 4536399 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 17th February 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Miles Davis San Francisco 1970 The Classic Radio Broadcast Jazz | Let Them Eat Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 26th September 2015 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis San Francisco 1970 The Classic Radio Broadcast £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Let Them Eat Vinyl SKU: LETV261LP Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 26th September 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gerry Mulligan & Ben Webster Gerry Mulligan meets Ben Webster Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 1LP Released 25th May 2018 £39.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gerry Mulligan & Ben Webster Gerry Mulligan meets Ben Webster £39.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AVRJ6104 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 25th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Mobilisation Generale (Protest Jazz 1970-1976) Jazz | Born Bad | 2LP Released 6th June 2014 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Mobilisation Generale (Protest Jazz 1970-1976) £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Born Bad SKU: BB057 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 6th June 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Baby Face Willette Face To Face Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 21st October 2016 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Baby Face Willette Face To Face £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: LP84068 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 21st October 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Duke Pearson Merry Ole Soul Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 1st October 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Duke Pearson Merry Ole Soul £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 3808954 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st October 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Anouar Brahem Barzakh Jazz | ECM | 180g, 1LP Released 13th October 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anouar Brahem Barzakh £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 5789587 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 13th October 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davies Greatest Hits Jazz | We Are Vinyl | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 8th May 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davies Greatest Hits £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: We Are Vinyl SKU: 88985446121 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 8th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lee Morgan Charisma Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 11th February 2009 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lee Morgan Charisma £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: BST84312 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 11th February 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
