I missed this post and was going to post the news about Helm's death.The Band was one of the first concerts I saw - they toured w/ Bob Dylan in 1966. I remember him best as the drummer of The Band:http://youtu.be/sjCw3-YTffo
Jonathan Frid, he probably saw the preview of Tim Burton's version of Dark Shadows and it killed him.
He also played Loretta Lynn's father in Coal Miner's Daughter

You only have to read the blog your link came from to get an idea of how generous both sides were in the making of the new version. After all, the original was only a soap opera with a very cool premise. It can stand a re-interpretation and it sounds like Jonathan Frid had fun being involved.
