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 Stanley Turrentine Up At Minton’s Volume 2 Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released 2nd September 2010 £52.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Stanley Turrentine Up At Minton’s Volume 2 £52.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AMMJ4070 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 2nd September 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sarah Vaughan The Divine One Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 11th November 2014 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sarah Vaughan The Divine One £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPANSR52060 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Empirical Wonder is the Beginning Jazz | Whirlwind Recordings | 1LP Released 16th August 2024 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Empirical Wonder is the Beginning £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Whirlwind Recordings SKU: WR4820LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th August 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gard Nilssen Acoustic Unity Elastic Wave Jazz | ECM | 1LP Released 5th April 2024 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gard Nilssen Acoustic Unity Elastic Wave £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 4830831 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Vincent Peirani Jokers Jazz | ACT | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 20th May 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Vincent Peirani Jokers £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP99441 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 20th May 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Billy Parker's Fourth World Freedom Of Speech Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 27th October 2017 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Billy Parker's Fourth World Freedom Of Speech £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: SES19754 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 27th October 2017 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Dinosaur To The Earth Jazz | Edition Records | 1LP Released 15th May 2020 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dinosaur To The Earth £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Edition Records SKU: EDNLP1154 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 15th May 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hampton Hawes For Real!
