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 Bałdych - Courtois - Telderman Clouds Jazz | ACT | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 9th October 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bałdych - Courtois - Telderman Clouds £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ACT SKU: ACTLP99181 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 9th October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Al Di Meola Opus Jazz | Ear Music | 1LP Released 21st February 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Al Di Meola Opus £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Ear Music SKU: 0212564EMU Formats: 1LP Released Date: 21st February 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dizzy Gillespie Cubana Be, Cubana Bop Jazz | BMG Records | 1LP Released 19th October 2018 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dizzy Gillespie Cubana Be, Cubana Bop £13.00 Genre: Jazz Label: BMG Records SKU: 4050538421361 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th October 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kenny Dorham Matador Jazz | Impex Records | 180g, 1LP Released 28th February 2022 £59.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Kenny Dorham Matador £59.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impex Records SKU: AIMX6042 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 28th February 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Jakob Bro, Thomas Morgan & Joey Baron Bay Of Rainbows Jazz | ECM | 1LP Released 12th October 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jakob Bro, Thomas Morgan & Joey Baron Bay Of Rainbows £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 6775896 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th October 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dexter Gordon Daddy Plays The Horn (mono) Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 24th June 2013 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dexter Gordon Daddy Plays The Horn (mono) £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: BCP36 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 24th June 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View George Benson Now Playing Jazz | Rhino Warner | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th July 2024 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders George Benson Now Playing £30.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Rhino Warner SKU: 0603497825189 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th July 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dizzy Gillespie Live At The Singer Concert Hall 1973 (The Lost Recordings) Jazz | The Lost Recordings | CD Released 12th September 2023 £TBC Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dizzy Gillespie Live At The Singer Concert Hall 1973 (The Lost Recordings) £TBC Genre: Jazz Label: The Lost Recordings SKU: FON 1704028 Formats: CD Released Date: 12th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Audiophile Analog Collection Vol. 2 (200g 45rpm 2LP) Blues | 2xHD | 200g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 27th October 2023 £110.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Various Artists Audiophile Analog Collection Vol. 2 (200g 45rpm 2LP) £110.00 Genre: Blues Label: 2xHD SKU: 2HDLP1167-45 Formats: 200g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 27th October 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Ruby Rushton Two For Joy Jazz | 22A | 1LP Released 10th July 2015 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ruby Rushton Two For Joy £16.00 Genre: Jazz Label: 22A SKU: 22A006 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th July 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
