Original Music From "Dark Shadows"

Forbidden Crypts Presents:

"Original Music From Dark Shadows"!

    Album Synopsis:
    "DARK SHADOWS". TV's first soap opera-horror show, went on the air over the ABC-TV network in June, 1966.
A Dan Curtis Production, the show is
now the most popular daytime TV
presentation, and commands an audience
of almost 20,000,000 viewers.
    The series is set in a small village in
Collinsport, Maine, and evolves around
the lives, loves and deaths of the
Collins Family. "Barnabas" is played by
the noted Shakespearian actor Jonathan
Frid, and "Quentin" is played by the
young actor from West Virginia,
David Selby. The plots weave through
different generations of the Collins Family
with vampires, werewolves, warlocks,
withces, phoenixes, gypsies, coffins,
ghosts, secret rooms, and the world
of the supernatural predominating.
    The suspenseful background music,
which has become as familiar to the
viewers as some of the most popular
songs of today, was composed,
conducted and arranged by Robert
Cobert, a Julliard graduate who has
scored more television shows than any
other composer. His music encompasses
the widest range of styles and sounds:
electronic, rock, weird, dramatic,
popular, and classical. In the background
music of "Dark Shadows", Cobert
masterfully utilizes varied combinations
of from two musicians to a full symphony
orchestra in creating the many moods of
the action at Collinwood.
