Nobody knew electronic music synthesis better than Isao Tomita. His technique is unmatched to this day and beyond. R.I.P. Mr. Tomita, and thank you for your spectacular compositions. 🙏
When I was in college in Chicago, synthesizers were gaining notoriety. I heard Switched on Bach when it first came out in '72. I also bought Snowflakes are Dancing. Beautiful stuff. I had a GOOD stereo made with AMERICAN components and I suppose my hearing loss at '81 had something to do with playing his music WAY to loud. Windows rattled. What a life.
wow!!! I`m 42 and this brings me back to my childhood!!! My father used to listen to this on his car, the family road trips were always accompanied with awesome music!!! one those albums was this one!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
I think,I still have this record,if my 61 one year old memory serves me right?When I had a record player(the old kind)I pretty sure 👍 I used to play this record?So…..we’re talking the early 1980”s,here.Tomita was an amazing 🤩 synthesis player in the 1980”s!😊
Hi! ... Greeting from the city of Mexicali Baja California Since the first time I heard him to me is the master. I support by subscribed Thanks for posting Later
I like two things about your video, 1. Simple showing the record player, 2. The piece of grand canyon rock at top left :o) It goes without saying that I love the music... I love Isao's works.
The ending is alway’s so nice in the Grand Canyon record,as well as the beginning of the second side.And,the whistling tune 🎵 just make’s one soooo relaxed 😎 when you listen to it!❤❤❤I love Isao Tomita’s music!🎵
Tomita used many different synthesizers and other keyboards for this version of Ferde Grofe's most famous work. In addition the old Moog patchwork synths he always used, the other keyboards included a Roland JP-4, a Yamaha CS-80 (I've always liked Yamaha synthesizers myself), an Emulator and a Synclavier. He also added a Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer and a Linn LN-1 Drum Computer. The US version of this album also contains a version of Leroy Anderson's "The Syncopated Clock."
In that Ufo 🛸 like sounding album,💿 there is also a message in that music,too.On the music 🎵 you hear a swoosh,and what sound’s like the word’s;George o’grady.Than,more swooshing noises.And,no….I’m not crazy about that message,but,that’s my interpretation of that 🎵 music,that’s all!We were really lucky 🍀 to have Isao Tomita here with us when he was alive!Peace 👍🧝♀️👩❤️👨🌖🎭🎼🎻🎹😊
I have several of his recordings on CD but nothing beats the good old fashioned snap crackle and pop of listening to it on a record player when I'm home alone in my bedroom. This is a great audio file, thank you for uploading.
Was it this album that came in a limited edition, in a puke peach 🍑 colored vinal . Not sure, its buried in my storage. If so i have it ! If my 70 year old memory serves me, he recorded part or all of this record, using a, what now would be a stone age pc computer that had something called a TARBELL SYSTEM or program. when hooked up to this you would hear a middle 3rd speaker, a TRI-REO ( i just made that word up, lol ) i actually found this cat, that had the only TARBELL program in town, practically the only computer in town ! Computer's were new and primitive back then. For this guy to have a TARBELL SYSTEM, was a real fluke, to say the least. Long story short, he wanted $30:00 to let me hear the recording ! 30 bucks was alot of money back then. So i bought a 4 finger ounce of weed, and put 5 bucks in my car for gas, i could fill my tank for 18 dollars back then. So i never got to listen to TOMITA'S TRI-REO . BUT LIFE WENT ON !!! LOL
@@bobneumann9781 That's the one I bought. Never got around to the translucent Bermuda blue version (snaps fingers). If I'm not misremembering, the words to that coded message could likely be found somewhere on the internet. I suppose James Masters will have decide if he wants to take the time to search. ;)
That’s what I find amazing about Isao’s Tomitoe’s work!It’s those ‘hidden message’s’in his 🎵 music!Recently,I saw his interviews in Tokyo,Japan this summer,and thought 💭 they were very interesting to see!It was in Japanese,so….there was no interpretation,unfortunately!Than,another time in June,I saw his live(1984)concert in Germany,I believe it was?Or,maybe,it was in Norway?🇳🇴 Well,at any rate,it was truly,amazing to see this concert 🎶!😊

まるで冨田勲さんの息吹を感じる作品です😊
This man was amazing, simply amazing I have always enjoyed just about every album he's ever released.
Gracias por el esfuerzo para compartir con un reproductos de acetatos de vinylo, suena muy bién, congratulations... From Guatemala atte: Harry

another great tomita album that rarely left the turntable when released.
グローフェの大峡谷，大好きな曲です。
最初に知ったのは映画「バレンチノ」でスタンリー・ブラックが鮮やかに編曲した音楽でした。
それから本物のグローフェの大峡谷をなんとブラックが指揮したレコードで改めて聴いたらとにかく新鮮な驚きや喜びで胸がいっぱいになりました。
冨田勲さんが亡くなって久しいですがTH-camで探して聴きながらシンセサイザーの新たな解釈でクラシックが別の顔を見せるのにはもう作品が発表されたのが何十年も前なのにすごい新鮮でどこか懐かしさを感じるのです。
この大峡谷には広野を荒れ狂う嵐や美しい夕焼け，騾馬が荷物を載せて歩く様などが息付きながら見えるようです。
私が持っているレコードやテープはわずかなので貴重な音源を発信してくださるTH-camrには改めて感謝申し上げます。
RIP and domo arigato Tomita sama. Well miss you........well take it from here
I have enjoyed Tomita since day one. I have all his albums and still enjoy all that he has done even to this day.
Thank you for posting this!
I love his quote on the backside of his second album about the Volcanic eruption and the roll of thunder.
Thank you for this lovely gift ❤
wow!!! I`m 42 and this brings me back to my childhood!!! My father used to listen to this on his car, the family road trips were always accompanied with awesome music!!! one those albums was this one!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
Same, a few years older than you, my mom had this and several other tapes. Literally the dreamscapes of my childhood.

Mine too!!
This is the version I first heard as a teen on the radio. Fell in love with it then. Only just found it on the internet today. Still the best version
Reminds me of being young my dad played your music a lot x
With the Numark portable turntable. ❤
Tomita, gracias.
Tomita is amazing a friend of mine turned me on to Tomita years ago & I have been a fan ever since...

La máxima expresión de música electrónica otorgada por un visionario de este arte Tomita...!

Grandios!!!
I have this LP
Love that you include the flipping. I've always found that's an essential part of the experience.

Tomita loved to setup his Moog to whistle. Most of his early albums, the Moog would whistle a lot!
That’s great 😃 to hear about this!Thank you for posting this!I appreciate it!😀
