Haunting recitation by Mr. Frid. I bought this LP when it came out and it is among my treasures. Thank you for posting this, which I consider the best recitation of Rossetti's poem.
Ever since I was a thirteen year old in 1969 when I got this album I thought this was a particularly good mix of poetry, narrative and music. It causes me to think of an East coast cemetery in the yellow light of sunset.
on the 3rd dark shadows album,which was released on media sound in 1988 this was the same piece as on the original music from dark shadows only on that track there was no recitation neither was there any recitation on quentin's theme just the music.

So haunting to this day!
Thank you for posting! I absolutely LOVE the Dark Shadows background music.
Jonathan Frid had a haunting voice

Is it posted anywhere here on UA-cam? I'd be interested in hearing it.
This is poem by Christina tosetti
Wonder who wrote the haunting poetry for these musical pieces?
Christina Rossetti on this one. Shakespeare did the “Our revels now are ended…”
