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 Edith Piaf De laccordéoniste à Milord Jazz | Warner Jazz | 180g, 1LP Released 27th November 2015 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Edith Piaf De laccordéoniste à Milord £13.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Warner Jazz SKU: 0825646069521 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 27th November 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis Bags Groove (mono) Jazz | Analogue Productions | 180g, 1LP Released 13th May 2014 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis Bags Groove (mono) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions SKU: APRJ7109 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 13th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fred Wesley Wuda Cuda Shuda Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 14th October 2016 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fred Wesley Wuda Cuda Shuda £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1747 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th October 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Stanley Clarke Modern Man Jazz | Epic | 1LP Released 16th October 2023 £10.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Stanley Clarke Modern Man £10.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Epic SKU: nn274280 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th October 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Chris Bowden Time Capsule Jazz | Soul Jazz | 2LP Released 28th September 2018 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Chris Bowden Time Capsule £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Soul Jazz SKU: SJRLP410 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 28th September 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Steve Reid / Soul Jazz Records presents Rhythmatism Jazz | Soul Jazz | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 1st November 2019 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Steve Reid / Soul Jazz Records presents Rhythmatism £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Soul Jazz SKU: SJRLP448 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 1st November 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ben Lamar Gay Downtown Castles Can Never Block The Sun Jazz | International Anthem Recording | 1LP Released 11th May 2018 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ben Lamar Gay Downtown Castles Can Never Block The Sun £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: International Anthem Recording SKU: LPIARC0017 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 11th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Caixa Cubo Angela Jazz | Heavenly | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 12th March 2021 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Caixa Cubo Angela £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Heavenly SKU: HVNLP185C Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 12th March 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fire!
