Movement Joe Harriott Quintet SKU: 6589967 Barcode: 0602465899672 26.00 £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: UMR Released Date: 4th October 2024 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info On 4 October 2024 Universal Music Recordings and Decca Records are making Jamaican/British jazz saxophonist Joe Harriott’s album ‘Movement’ available again for the first time since it was released in 1964. 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 Iiro Rantala & The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen Playing Gershwin Jazz | ACT | 1LP Released 31st January 2020 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Iiro Rantala & The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen Playing Gershwin £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP9893-1 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 31st January 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View James Taylor Quartet, The People Get Ready (We’re Moving On) Jazz | Audio Network | 1LP Released 20th March 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders James Taylor Quartet, The People Get Ready (We’re Moving On) £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Audio Network SKU: ANWJTQ2LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th March 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Brad Mehldau Suite: April 2020 Jazz | Nonesuch | 1LP Released 18th September 2020 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Brad Mehldau Suite: April 2020 £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Nonesuch SKU: 0075597919448 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 18th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Charles Lloyd Dream Weaver Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 10th February 2017 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Charles Lloyd Dream Weaver £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPANSD1459 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th February 2017 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Zoot Sims Quartet Zoot Jazz | So Far Out | 180g, 1LP Released 10th June 2013 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Zoot Sims Quartet Zoot £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: So Far Out SKU: OUT5006LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th June 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Norman Connors Dance of Magic Jazz | Buddah | 180g, 1LP Released 21st April 2023 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Norman Connors Dance of Magic £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Buddah SKU: PPAN BDS56741 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 21st April 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Miles Davis The Prestige 10-Inch LPs Collection, Vol. 1 Jazz | Concord | 10", Box Set Released 15th December 2014 £79.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis The Prestige 10-Inch LPs Collection, Vol. 1 £79.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Concord SKU: 7236009 Formats: 10", Box Set Released Date: 15th December 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Evan Parker Collected Solos Jazz | Otoroku | 4LP, Box Set Released 29th January 2021 £112.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Evan Parker Collected Solos £112.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Otoroku SKU: ROKURE011 Formats: 4LP, Box Set Released Date: 29th January 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View YolanDa Brown Love Politics War Jazz | Black Grape Records | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 16th June 2017 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders YolanDa Brown Love Politics War £15.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Black Grape Records SKU: LPBGREC6 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 16th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kadri Voorand In Duo with Mihkel Mälgand Jazz | ACT | 1LP Released 26th June 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kadri Voorand In Duo with Mihkel Mälgand £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP9739-1 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th June 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
