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 Billie Holiday BILLIE: The Original Soundtrack Jazz | UMe | 1LP Released 13th November 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Billie Holiday BILLIE: The Original Soundtrack £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: UMe SKU: 3505668 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 13th November 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Leon Redbone Champagne Charlie Blues | Warner Bros | 1LP Released 1st July 2024 £10.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Leon Redbone Champagne Charlie £10.00 Genre: Blues Label: Warner Bros SKU: nn289760 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 1st July 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Lars Danielsson & Leszek Mozdzer Pasodoble Jazz | ACT | 2LP Released 18th November 2022 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lars Danielsson & Leszek Mozdzer Pasodoble £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP9458-1 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 18th November 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tito Puente El Rey Bravo Jazz | Craft Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 10th November 2023 £35.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tito Puente El Rey Bravo £35.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Craft Recordings SKU: 7250497 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dave Brubeck Quartet Jazz At Oberlin (Craft OJC Series) Jazz | Craft Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 10th November 2023 £43.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dave Brubeck Quartet Jazz At Oberlin (Craft OJC Series) £43.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Craft Recordings SKU: CR612 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Isao Suzuki Quartet + 1 Blue City Jazz | Craftman | 180g, 1LP Released 7th April 2023 £70.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Isao Suzuki Quartet + 1 Blue City £70.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Craftman SKU: CMRSLPI156 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 7th April 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis On The Corner Jazz | Mobile Fidelity | SACD Released 21st June 2016 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis On The Corner £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: UDSACD 2171 Formats: SACD Released Date: 21st June 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Stacey Kent The Changing Lights Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 14th August 2014 £47.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Stacey Kent The Changing Lights £47.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPAN17529 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 14th August 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Julie London London By Night Jazz | Pan Am Records | 180g, 1LP Released 26th April 2010 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Julie London London By Night £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pan Am Records SKU: LP9152231 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th April 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View McCoy Tyner Sahara Jazz | OJC | 1LP Released 10th December 2016 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders McCoy Tyner Sahara £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: OJC SKU: OJC311 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th December 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
