Description
Joe Harriott Quintet Swings High
Labels : Melodisc (Released : 1967) Cadillac (Released : 2004) Format : Mp3@320  This CD from 1967 is a fine example of Joe’s playing in a superb quintet that features his preferred rhythm section of Pat Smythe (piano), Coleridge Goode (bass) and Phil Seaman (drums), plus the relatively unknown bop trumpeter Stu Hamer. The program of eight pieces include two ballads - "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" and "A Time for Love" - both of which capture Harriott's fiercely lyrical quality, the rest originals by himself, Dizzy Reece and Pat Smythe. Hamer's confident trumpet playing shines throughout. A most peculiar aspect of this recording is that it harkens back to a period predating Harriott's experiments with the avant garde (1960-64) and Indo-Jazz Fusions (1965-67), and shows his command of the language that Charlie Parker concocted .
