| ran blake - all that is tied
ran blake recorded all that is tied, his 35th album, exactly 40 years since cutting his very first solo piano lp for the esp label in 1965. marking that anniversary, and his 70th birthday, the master pianist and composer revisits selections from his entire career, bringing new life to an extraordinary and unique body of work.
a cult figure surrounded by the same mysterious aura that permeates the classic film noir scenes which so inspire him, pianist/composer/educator ran blake has been one of improvised music's most respected and incomparable voices for more than 40 years. his noteworthy collaborators on record have included anthony braxton, clifford jordan, steve lacy, jeanne lee, and houston person among others, but his seminal solo recordings have always defined his discography and his career. |
