谢谢大家的捧场！又是加试听又是介绍作曲家的，非常感动！

最早听PLANETS是很久以前的事了，说三十年可能有点儿夸张，但二十五年是有的。当时的版本跟今天这个很接近，说接近是因为还有一个叫做Patrick Gleeson（who did several classical synthesizer albums using the Emu Modular synthesizer, released his own version of Holst’s ’The Planets’ on Mercury Records）的人也出过一张. 不同的是Patrick是在一部传统交响音乐的基础上进一步创作而富田勋则更富于原创精神（Unlike Patrick Gleeson, who recently recorded a synthesizer version of Holst’s The Planets for Mercury, Tomita doesn’t try to recreate the exact sound of the original orchestral work. In contrast to the mechanized feeling of Gleeson’s rendition, Tomita uses his space age instrument to express a very human vision.）。到底我听过的是哪一版实在回忆不起来了，也无从考证。但无论是哪一版，带给我的强烈听觉冲击至今无法平息，关于宇宙的想象从那时开始。这也正是为什么我此后不断地寻找、收集各种版本的PLANETS。

所以在我碰到这些音乐时，奇妙的感觉又一次被唤醒。不跟大家分享怎么能行！大家跟我一样喜欢，我很高兴。
