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 Sun Ra Sleeping Beauty Jazz | Art Yard | 1LP Released 20th March 2010 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sun Ra Sleeping Beauty £15.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Art Yard SKU: KSAY3NLP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th March 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Freddie Hubbard Open Sesame Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 14th June 2019 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Freddie Hubbard Open Sesame £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 7745066 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 14th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Walter Smith III three of us are from Houston and Reuben is not Jazz | Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Blue Note | 1LP Released 27th September 2024 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Walter Smith III three of us are from Houston and Reuben is not £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Decca (UMO) / Jazz / Blue Note SKU: 6525090 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 27th September 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Coltrane & Don Cherry Coltrane Plays The Blues (Mono)The Avant-Garde (Mono) Jazz | Atlantic | 180g, 1LP Released 12th June 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Coltrane & Don Cherry Coltrane Plays The Blues (Mono)The Avant-Garde (Mono) £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Atlantic SKU: 0081227945190 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Coltrane My Favourite Things Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 13th February 2013 £65.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Coltrane My Favourite Things £65.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: ORGM108045 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 13th February 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View George Coleman At Yoshi’s Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 14th October 2022 £47.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations George Coleman At Yoshi’s £47.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: TR126 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 14th October 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Elton Dean Quintet Welcomet (Live In Brazil 1986) Jazz | Impetus Records | 1LP Released 19th June 2010 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Elton Dean Quintet Welcomet (Live In Brazil 1986) £12.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impetus Records SKU: IMP18612 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th June 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Billy Cobham Spectrum Jazz | Atlantic | 1LP Released 21st May 2024 £20.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Billy Cobham Spectrum £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Atlantic SKU: nn287339 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 21st May 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Skydive Trio Sun Moee Jazz | Hubro | 1LP, Includes CD Released 13th April 2015 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Skydive Trio Sun Moee £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Hubro SKU: HUBROLP3537 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 13th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Rough Guide to Brazilian Jazz Jazz | Rough Guides | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 29th July 2016 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Rough Guide to Brazilian Jazz £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Rough Guides SKU: RGNET1345LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 29th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
