About this album
Personal Portrait is a striking late-1960s statement from Joe Harriott, balancing hard bop structure with the adventurous edge that made him one of British jazz’s most original voices. Issued in 1968, the album finds Harriott working with taut ensembles and a repertoire that ranges from standards to more exploratory pieces, underlining his ability to move between lyricism and abstraction without losing momentum. Best known for breaking new ground in free jazz and Indo-Jazz Fusions, Harriott brings the same restless intelligence here, making the record an important document of a major saxophonist refining his personal language in a hard bop setting.
