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 Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music, Volume One (Classic Vinyl Series) Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 16th December 2022 £19.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music, Volume One (Classic Vinyl Series) £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 4535336 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 16th December 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Miles Davis Four and More (Live 1966) Jazz | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 1LP Released 9th February 2013 £50.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis Four and More (Live 1966) £50.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: MFSL1376 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 9th February 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Stockfisch Records Vinyl Collection Volume 2 Jazz | Stockfisch | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 12th March 2013 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Stockfisch Records Vinyl Collection Volume 2 £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Stockfisch SKU: SFR35780091 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 12th March 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Harold Land The Peace-Maker Jazz | Verve Records [US] | Verve Records | Verve By Request | 180g, 2LP Released 10th November 2023 £33.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Harold Land The Peace-Maker £33.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve Records [US] | Verve Records | Verve By Request SKU: 5586120 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 10th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kenny Wheeler Gnu High Jazz | ECM | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 28th April 2023 £31.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kenny Wheeler Gnu High £31.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 4505346 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 28th April 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Pepe de Lucía & Paco de Lucía Pepito y Paquito Jazz | BMG Rights Management | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released 28th June 2024 £46.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pepe de Lucía & Paco de Lucía Pepito y Paquito £46.00 Genre: Jazz Label: BMG Rights Management SKU: 4099964028348 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released Date: 28th June 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Necks, The Bleed Jazz | Northern Spy | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 11th October 2024 £24.00 Select options Necks, The Bleed £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Northern Spy Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 11th October 2024 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Miles Davis Kind Of Blue Jazz | Sony Legacy | 180g, 1LP Released 16th October 2015 £18.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Miles Davis Kind Of Blue £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Sony Legacy SKU: 88875111921 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 16th October 2015 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Archie Shepp Kwanza (Verve By Request Series) Jazz | Verve | 180g, 1LP Released 12th May 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Archie Shepp Kwanza (Verve By Request Series) £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve SKU: 4847618 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th May 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hank Garland Jazz Winds From A New Direction Jazz | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 2nd March 2015 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Hank Garland Jazz Winds From A New Direction £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner SKU: CS8372 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 2nd March 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
