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 Miles Davis Round About Midnight Jazz | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 1LP Released 9th July 2013 £46.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Miles Davis Round About Midnight £46.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: MFSL1373 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 9th July 2013 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Ray Charles Live In Concert Jazz | Analogue Productions | 1LP, 200g Released 22nd January 2013 £38.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ray Charles Live In Concert £38.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AAPP500 Formats: 1LP, 200g Released Date: 22nd January 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Hartman I Just Dropped By To Say Hello Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 5th October 2012 £70.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Johnny Hartman I Just Dropped By To Say Hello £70.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: ORG027LP Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 5th October 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Julie London Julie Is Her Name Vol. 2 Jazz | Analogue Productions | SACD Released 17th November 2015 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Julie London Julie Is Her Name Vol. 2 £29.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: CAPP7100SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 17th November 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Wayne Shorter Night Dreamer (Classic Vinyl) Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 17th November 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Wayne Shorter Night Dreamer (Classic Vinyl) £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 5552940 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Don Cherry Live in Stockholm Jazz | Caprice Records | 2LP Released 4th November 2013 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Don Cherry Live in Stockholm £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Caprice Records SKU: LPCAP21836 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 4th November 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Trijntje Oosterhuis & Metropole Orkest Look Of Love = Burt Bacharach Songbook Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 29th July 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Trijntje Oosterhuis & Metropole Orkest Look Of Love = Burt Bacharach Songbook £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2902 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th July 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Don Wilkerson Preach Brother!
