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 Ron Carter All Blues Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 26th February 2016 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ron Carter All Blues £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPANCTI6037 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th February 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View George Benson Breezin’ Jazz | Rhino | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th February 2021 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders George Benson Breezin’ £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Rhino SKU: 0603497845149 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th February 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nathan Davis Sextet Peace Treaty Jazz | Sam Records | 180g, 1LP Released 1st June 2020 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nathan Davis Sextet Peace Treaty £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Sam Records SKU: SR17/1 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st June 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gregory Porter Take Me To The Alley Jazz | Blue Note | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 3rd May 2016 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gregory Porter Take Me To The Alley £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 4781445 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 3rd May 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Anouar Brahem Barzakh Jazz | ECM | 180g, 1LP Released 13th October 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anouar Brahem Barzakh £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 5789587 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 13th October 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Slowly Rolling Camera Where the Streets Lead Jazz | Edition Records | 1LP Released 23rd July 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Slowly Rolling Camera Where the Streets Lead £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Edition Records SKU: EDNLP1176 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd July 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Herbie Mann Surprises Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP, Includes Insert Released 19th January 2015 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Herbie Mann Surprises £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1245 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Insert Released Date: 19th January 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Friedrich Gulda The Well-Tempered Clavier Classical | MPS | 5LP Released 30th October 2015 £95.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Friedrich Gulda The Well-Tempered Clavier £95.00 Genre: Classical Label: MPS SKU: 0300651MSW Formats: 5LP Released Date: 30th October 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Various Arists New Thing!
