''All That Is Tied'' is a solo album by pianist Ran Blake which was recorded in 2005 to mark the 40th anniversary of his first solo recording ''Ran Blake Plays Solo Piano'' and his 70th birthday and was released on the Tompkins Square label in 2006.〔(Tompkins Square Records ) accessed October 24, 2014〕〔(Ran Blake discography ) accessed October 24, 2014〕 ==Reception==
''The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' identified the album as part of their suggested "Core Collection" of essential jazz albums and awarded the compilation a "Crown" signifying a recording that the authors "feel a special admiration or affection for".〔(Penguin Guide to Jazz: Crown Albums List ), accessed October 24, 2014〕 The Allmusic review by Stewart Mason awarded the album 4½ stars stating "''All That Is Tied'' touches on every facet of Blake's unique piano style, summing up this underrated composer and educator's career in the space of 12 brief original compositions".〔Mason, S. (Allmusic Review ) accessed October 24, 2014〕 On All About Jazz Norman Weinstein noted "Blake performs the twelve numbers with characteristic daring. The Monk influence has grown refined over the decades. It began with a foregrounding of Monk's surprising dissonances and a widening of Monk's oddly placed silences. But unlike Monk, Blake brings a kind of European classical sensibility, both melodically and harmonically, to his improvisations" while Jerry D'Souza said "The pianist's thoughts are as fertile as one could ever wish them to be, and he makes fulsome use of them as he enunciates with authority on All That Is Tied, a solo recording made forty years after his first album. Time has not stilled his passion; it still beats strongly within him, along with his sense for discovery. Blake is always alert for a new direction which will spring a surprise. His sense of fun is an integral part of his makeup, and he continues to explore it delightfully".〔Weinstein, N., (All About Jazz Review ), April 5, 2006〕〔D'Souza, J., (All About Jazz Review ), March 13, 2006〕 Not all reviews were as enthusiastic. The JazzTimes review by Thomas Conrad felt "a program of unrelieved, halting, gnarly Blake compositions makes for an austere evening... There is no pleasure in reporting that for me it is the longest 43 minutes of the jazz year to date".〔Conrad, T., (JazzTimes Review ), May 2006〕
