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 Diana Krall Quiet Nights Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 19th June 2015 £65.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Diana Krall Quiet Nights £65.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: AORG16045 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 19th June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis Dark Magus Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 8th September 2021 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis Dark Magus £32.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1454 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 8th September 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Lytle People & Love Jazz | Craft Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 29th March 2024 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Johnny Lytle People & Love £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Craft Recordings SKU: 7250790 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Youn Sun Nah Same Girl Jazz | ACT | 1LP, Includes CD Released 18th December 2014 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Youn Sun Nah Same Girl £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP9024-1 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 18th December 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Renegades Of Jazz Moyo Wangu Jazz | Agogo Records | 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 2nd September 2016 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Renegades Of Jazz Moyo Wangu £27.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Agogo Records SKU: AR73VL Formats: 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 2nd September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Louis Sclavis Quartet Characters On A Wall Jazz | ECM | 1LP Released 20th September 2019 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Louis Sclavis Quartet Characters On A Wall £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 0804585 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th September 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kendrick Scott Corridors Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 3rd March 2023 £22.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Kendrick Scott Corridors £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 4552189 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 3rd March 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Pharoah Sanders Live At Fabrik, Hamburg 1980 Jazz | Jazzline | 1LP Released 24th March 2023 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pharoah Sanders Live At Fabrik, Hamburg 1980 £32.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Jazzline SKU: D78123 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th March 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Return To Forever Romantic Warrior Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 14th November 2011 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Return To Forever Romantic Warrior £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP436 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th November 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Messthetics and James Brandon, The The Messthetics and James Brandon Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Verve | 1LP Released 15th March 2024 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Messthetics and James Brandon, The The Messthetics and James Brandon £26.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Verve SKU: 5894589 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 15th March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
