Description:

JOE HARRIOTT QUINTET FREE FORM Original Release 1961 Jazzland Records Re Released 1998 Redial 2007 Gottdiscs Format:Mp3@320 A certain view of jazz history has us believe that responsibility for the evolution of the music lies exclusively in American hands. This is both too deterministic and a slight upon the music's power to move and to influence. As early as the late 1930s European players were making innovations of their own at the same time as some Europeans were regarding jazz as akin to the spawn of Satan; the guitarist Django Reinhardt for example was contributing greatly to the jazz vocabulary of his chosen instrument. The same is true of bop, hard bop and the 'cool school', all of which had their fluent and capable European acolytes in the 1950s; the Swedish baritone saxophonist Lars Gullin made a name for himself in the last of these. The West Indian-born alto saxophonist Joe Harriott was one of the most convincing boppers outside of the USA at a time when the music was still fresh, though by the end of the 1950s he was exploring freer musical pastures, and the quintet with which he undertook the exploration was an outgrowth of the hard bop band with which he'd made a name on the British scene. As the 1960s progressed, Harriott also proved himself to be something of a pioneer in the fusion field, in the way he fused jazz and classical Indian music in collaboration with the violinist John Mayer. Often in the past the group's music, in which trumpet and flugelhorn player Shake Keane figured alongside Harriott in the front line, has been compared with that of the early Ornette Coleman quartets. Such labelling does justice to neither group's work, and also overlooks the fact that Harriott's band included a pianist, Pat Smythe, who proved himself highly conversant with Harriott's different methodology. Coleridge Goode, the bassist in Harriott's band, has written of how much headway the band made with the new music once drummer Phil Seaman arrived on the scene The music the group produced on both the Free Form and Abstract albums has little in common with Coleman's. Here it's far more interactive, a fact borne out most obviously by the lack of soloists. This makes for a far more organic music than anything Coleman's group was putting out at the time. This is most pronounced on Calypso from the Free Form album, where the rhythm of that indigenously West Indian form is extraordinarily maintained in the midst of characteristic group exchanges. From a present day perspective it seems odd that the lack of record sales might have put an end to Harriott's work in this idiom, though certainly it's the case that the two albums referred to above amount to the sum total of it on record. By the later 1960s Harriott was producing world music long before the term became fashionable, as Richard Cook has pointed out and Harriott's collaborations with John Mayer are not only trailblazing, but also notable for the fact that neither genre suffers in the fusion, and the resulting music, though obviously something of a hybrid, is neither bland nor innocuous in the way that so much present day fusion of a similar variety can be.
