MPI publicity: "This one-of-a-kind collection features the most

the Grammy-nominated hit `Quentin's Theme.'
"The 1966-1971 ABC-TV Gothic daytime series DS remains one of the

"In 1969, `The Original Music From Dark Shadows' vinyl album hit the
Top 20. It remains in the top five most successful television
soundtrack releases of all time. The show also spawned a top ten
single, `Quentin's Theme,' which received a Grammy nomination.
"Now, for the first time, the entire music library from the original
DS series, covering hundreds of cues, is collected in this digitally-
remastered 8-disc set, including many rare, never-before-heard
