We’ve written a few times about Cadabra Records’ The Hound & The Music Of Erich Zann, which is a spoken word vinyl containing two stories from acclaimed American horror author H.P. Lovecraft. Now you can actually hear a sample of the recording, which went up for pre-order yesterday.
The album is read by Andrew Leman, who is a partner in the H.P. Lovecraft historical society as well as a professional actor with years of stage, screen, and audio performances.
Per the official press release:
Cadabra Records specializes the Spoken Arts — specifically, dark words in the vinyl format — and The Hound & The Music Of Erich Zann will see an initial first pressing of 500 copies. The LP will be pressed on 150-gram vinyl and housed in a gatefold tip-on “old style” jacket, including a 4-page booklet with new liner notes and more. Preorders will be made available the first week of November and the album will ship out in January.
Lovecraft is the man behind such stories as The Call of Cthulhu, At the Mountains Of Madness, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, The Dunwich Horror and many more.
