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 LA LOM Los Angeles League of Musicians Jazz | Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Verve | 1LP Released 9th August 2024 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders LA LOM Los Angeles League of Musicians £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Verve SKU: 6574354 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 9th August 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hank Mobley Soul Station Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 9th April 2021 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Hank Mobley Soul Station £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 746554 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 9th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Blicher Hemmer Gadd Blicher Hemmer Gadd Jazz | C-Nut Records | 1LP Released 27th October 2014 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Blicher Hemmer Gadd Blicher Hemmer Gadd £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: C-Nut Records SKU: CNUT07 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 27th October 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ralph Towner & John Abercrombie Five Years Later Jazz | ECM | 180g, 1LP Released 27th January 2014 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ralph Towner & John Abercrombie Five Years Later £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 3743513 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 27th January 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Don Ellis How Time Passes Jazz | Candid Records | 1LP Released 21st July 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Don Ellis How Time Passes £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Candid Records SKU: LPCND32091 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 21st July 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Chet Baker Easy to Love Jazz | Dreyfus Jazz | 1LP Released 10th May 2019 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Chet Baker Easy to Love £13.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Dreyfus Jazz SKU: 4050538482409 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th May 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Wayne Shorter The Soothsayer Jazz | Blue Note | Miscellaneous Released 23rd April 2009 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Wayne Shorter The Soothsayer £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: LT988 Formats: Miscellaneous Released Date: 23rd April 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bill Laswell Baselines Jazz | Tiger Bay | 180g, 1LP, 45rpm Released 14th June 2017 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bill Laswell Baselines £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Tiger Bay SKU: T02832 Formats: 180g, 1LP, 45rpm Released Date: 14th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jamie Cullum Taller Jazz | Island | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 7th June 2019 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jamie Cullum Taller £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Island SKU: 7768697 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 7th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Oliver Nelson The Blues And The Abstract Truth (Acoustic Sounds Series) Jazz | Impulse | 180g, 1LP Released 2nd July 2021 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Oliver Nelson The Blues And The Abstract Truth (Acoustic Sounds Series) £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impulse SKU: 3566914 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 2nd July 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
