ELECTRIC SAMURAI (Isao Tomita)
Switched-On Rock, 1972
"You Don't Have To Say You Love Me"
You Don't Have to Say You Love Me, is a song recorded by British singer Dusty Springfield.
It is an English version of an Italian song called "Io che non vivo (senza te)" (translated: "I, who can't live (without you)") written by Pino Donaggio and Vito Pallavicini.
Springfield heard it at the Sanremo Festival in 1965 where it was performed by Donaggio himself and his team partner Jody Miller, and she presented it to Vicki Wickham and Simon Napier-Bell, who wrote the English lyrics for the song. (from Wikipedia)

As is stated here earlier, this is Tomita a couple of years before Snowflakes are Dancing and already you can here some of his trademark sounds and it also shows that he had acquired that level of skill using a modular Moog that few others have done even upto today, sounds quaint now but typical Tomita. If your a Tomita fan, its well worth getting a copy of this LP as you will hear a lot of the basis of what was to come later, great 10/10 :-)

Proto type Tomita here, this was done before he became famous for his other work but you can here a lot of the sounds he used later on and developed into more sophisticated music. great suff :-)

I admire Tomita!! Great style and incredible sound. But there's something about the Moog: W.Carlos worked on the same system and I hate his/her sound according to his/her lack of fantasy and real gift for sonic timbres. At the same time I've heard album made entirely on large EMS modular synth and sounded more or like Tomita. So the conclusion is: the personnel means more than the equipment.....
