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 Manu Katche, Tomasaz Stanko, Jan Garberek Neighbourhood Jazz | ECM | 1LP Released 7th June 2019 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Manu Katche, Tomasaz Stanko, Jan Garberek Neighbourhood £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 7742670 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sons Of Kemet Burn – 10th Anniversary Remaster Jazz | Native Rebel Recordings | 2LP Released 8th September 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sons Of Kemet Burn – 10th Anniversary Remaster £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Native Rebel Recordings SKU: NRR006DLP Formats: 2LP Released Date: 8th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Shabaka Afrikan Culture Jazz | Impulse | 1LP Released 24th March 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Shabaka Afrikan Culture £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impulse SKU: 4587239 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th March 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers Munich 59 Jazz | Birdland | 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released 6th June 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers Munich 59 £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Birdland SKU: BIRD009 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 6th June 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Elvin Jones Genesis Jazz | Third Man Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th November 2023 £ Select options Elvin Jones Genesis £ Genre: Jazz Label: Third Man Records Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th November 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Art Taylor AT’s Delight Jazz | Blue Note | SACD Released 1st March 2023 £20.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Art Taylor AT’s Delight £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 753088404764 Formats: SACD Released Date: 1st March 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Jackie McLean Lights Out Jazz | Analogue Productions | SACD Released 6th October 2014 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jackie McLean Lights Out £29.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: CPRJ7035SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 6th October 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jon Hassell The Surgeon Of The Nightsky Jazz | Intuition | 1LP Released 26th January 2024 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jon Hassell The Surgeon Of The Nightsky £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Intuition SKU: INTLP30041 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Creative Arts Ensemble One Step Out Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 30th September 2022 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Creative Arts Ensemble One Step Out £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: NS-913 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 30th September 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View John Scofield Hand Jive Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 2LP Released 9th August 2019 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Scofield Hand Jive £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 7759665 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 9th August 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
