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 Kenny Dorham Quiet Kenny Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 1LP Released 26th January 2017 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kenny Dorham Quiet Kenny £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: APRJ8225 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th January 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Billie Holiday Rough Guide To Jazz & Blues Legends Jazz | Rough Guides | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 1st November 2010 £10.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Billie Holiday Rough Guide To Jazz & Blues Legends £10.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Rough Guides SKU: RGNET1234LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 1st November 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio Blues For K Vol. 1 Jazz | Somethin' Cool | 180g, 1LP Released 7th April 2023 £70.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio Blues For K Vol. 1 £70.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Somethin' Cool SKU: SCLPI1062 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 7th April 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sans Soucis Circumnavigating Georgia Jazz | Decca (UMO) [GB] | Jazz | Decca Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 11th October 2024 £26.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Sans Soucis Circumnavigating Georgia £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Decca (UMO) [GB] | Jazz | Decca Records SKU: 6524067 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 11th October 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lyn Stanley London Calling Jazz | A T Music | 180g, 2LP Release Date TBC £100.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Lyn Stanley London Calling £100.00 Genre: Jazz Label: A T Music SKU: ATM3107N Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto Getz/Gilberto Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 22nd October 2011 £65.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto Getz/Gilberto £65.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AVRJ854545 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 22nd October 2011 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Roy Haynes Senyah Jazz | Mainstream | 1LP Released 19th September 2006 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Roy Haynes Senyah £15.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mainstream SKU: MRL351 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th September 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lee Konitz Motion Jazz | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 11th October 2006 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lee Konitz Motion £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner SKU: VERVEV68399 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th October 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music Vol. 2 Jazz | Universal/Blue Note | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 17th February 2015 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music Vol. 2 £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal/Blue Note SKU: 4710521 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 17th February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Hodges Blues A Plenty Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 11th February 2014 £60.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Johnny Hodges Blues A Plenty £60.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AVRJ612345 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 11th February 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
