Movement Joe Harriott Quintet SKU: 6589967 Barcode: 0602465899672 26.00 £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: UMR Released Date: 4th October 2024 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info On 4 October 2024 Universal Music Recordings and Decca Records are making Jamaican/British jazz saxophonist Joe Harriott’s album ‘Movement’ available again for the first time since it was released in 1964. 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 Harold Vick Don’t Look Back Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 18th May 2018 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Harold Vick Don’t Look Back £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: SES-7431 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 18th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lee Konitz Tenorlee Jazz | Candid Records | 180g, 1LP Released 1st December 2023 £26.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Lee Konitz Tenorlee £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Candid Records SKU: LPCND33221 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st December 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Herbie Mann At the Village Gate Jazz | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 23rd November 2018 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Herbie Mann At the Village Gate £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner SKU: SD1380 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 23rd November 2018 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Al Jarreau Breakin Away Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP, Includes Insert Released 23rd March 2015 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Al Jarreau Breakin Away £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1351 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Insert Released Date: 23rd March 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Benny Carter Jazz Giant Jazz | Contemporary Records (Acoustic Sounds Series) | 180g, 1LP Released 16th December 2022 £36.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Benny Carter Jazz Giant £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Contemporary Records (Acoustic Sounds Series) SKU: 7224095 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 16th December 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Linda Hill Lullaby For Linda Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 1st January 2019 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Linda Hill Lullaby For Linda £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: NS-791 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st January 2019 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Shelly Mann, Barney Kessel And Ray Brown The Poll Winners Jazz | Concord | 1LP Released 27th April 2015 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Shelly Mann, Barney Kessel And Ray Brown The Poll Winners £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Concord SKU: 7235979 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 27th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Milt Jackson And John Coltrane Bags & Trane (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) Jazz | Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) | SACD Released 25th December 2025 £45.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Milt Jackson And John Coltrane Bags & Trane (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) SKU: CAPA 063 SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 25th December 2025 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Prestige All Stars, The All Night Long (Mono) Jazz | Analogue Productions (Prestige) | 180g, 1LP Released 9th January 2018 £45.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Prestige All Stars, The All Night Long (Mono) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions (Prestige) SKU: APRJ7073 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 9th January 2018 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Art Tatum Art Tatum from Gene Norman’s Just Jazz Jazz | Vogue | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 17th November 2017 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Art Tatum Art Tatum from Gene Norman’s Just Jazz £16.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Vogue SKU: 88985448231 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 17th November 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
