Was driving to work today and the local 'classic rock' station had a psychic on.  They were playing the DS theme as he did his reading!  ;)

"I know just the place!?Over in Logansport!"
"If ya feel it, SIT it!"
"Come on, before he offers me a side car too!"
"Her nose needed some powder!"
"You askin' me to give up something I like?"

If you love that dark cello/bass viol sound, orchestrator Paul Backmaster has spent his entire career using it too.    He orchestrated the early Elton John albums in 1970 and 1971, and has come back and done something with him every few years.    He did the soundtrack for the Terry Gilliam movie "Twelve Monkeys".

Two years ago I brought my son who was 10 at the time to a wax museum at Lake George,NY.  Throughout the museum they were playing music from Dark Shadows. It was my son who noticed the music first. You never know where you'll hear a DS tune.  Elmont...
