En ny flott plate med Allan Taylor. Innspilt hos Stockfisch Records og med typisk Stockfisch Records fantastiske lydkvalitet. Allan Taylor sier selv at han har fått bedre tilbakemeldinger enn på mange år etter denne nye plata. Vi kan si oss enig i at ALL IS ONE er eksepsjonell god. En storhet i lydbildet med fantastisk flott klang og definisjon i bassen gjør det til en fryd å lytte igjennom denne plata. Som vanlig fint gitarspill med en del piano som hovedinstrumenter. Personlig synes jeg denne plata rett og slett er fantastisk ( Paul Mortensen )!! Man "sitrer seg" igjennom denne plata. Ved første avspilling, når man er midt i den ene fantastiske låten så ønsker man bare å høre hvordan neste låt er. Musikk er smak og behag men den som liker rolig musikk med flotte stemmer, flotte klanger, sterk grunnvoll med en stram og definert bunn - og så med flotte melodier og tekster - så kan man ikke unngå å forelske seg i ALL IS ONE. Allan min venn - Gratulerer med et stykke fantastisk musikk - som vi nå har mulighet til å spre utover Norges land.

On previous albums Allan Taylor sang songs about the road, about all the different countries and all the hotel rooms… The new album goes deeper – into time and ultimately to the recognition: “All is one”. A powerful philosophical statement delivered with virtuoso lightness.
Someone who is approaching 70 and calls his album “All Is One” obviously has something to say. Just recently Allan Taylor faced one of life’s tests – a severe shoulder disfunction prevented him from playing guitar – not an easy situation for a musician. In the meantime that is thankfully all healed and forgotten. Not shying away from the strain and frustration involved, he worked his way back to his instrument, his fans and to the recording studio at Stockfisch Records. He could have presented this album as a big comeback, a resurrection, but that is simply not the style of this master of contemplative tones.
Insiders will recognise a stringent continuation of his 2009 album “Leaving At Dawn”. Even then it was about leaving, about long journeys, the poetry of movement – subjects even more strongly represented on this album. Instead of driving on asphalt it’s about moving through time, and the title song is the best example. He wrote the first lines back in 2004, which kept flickering back to him and could finally now be completed. The lyrics tell of old guitars and of velvet gloves which close doors - but the song is a long way from drowning in sentimental resignation. Those who can read between the lines will discover a clever mixture of dance and march: “One final dance unites us all”.
It is Allan Taylor’s very own rhythm, for he sees himself as part of the “Travelling Troubadours” tradition: dance, sing and travel onwards … with good news: a new tour starts, he is currently touring through Germany, Scotland and his English homeland.
Taylor plays his favourite Martin guitars with the same sensitivity for body, expression and autonomy which one finds in his vocal performance – always moving, and never merely vague. In the last song Allan Taylor summarizes: „I may not be the perfect man, I guess I’ll do the best I can“ – and ends the album with the bemused lightness of a simple D-major chord. Maybe a touch too modest for a master?
