Personnel

CD release and Stage Musical Version

The music of Poe was first released on the studio recorded CD Poe: More Tales of Mystery and Imagination, containing 10 tracks (including the 3 parts of The Pit and the Pendulum as a single track). The CD running order did not match that of the later stage show.

The stage musical version of Woolfson's Poe premiered at Abbey Road Studios in November of 2003.[2]

The musical contains seventeen songs.[3] The seven songs which are missing from the 2003 Poe: More Tales from Mystery and Imagination CD are:

The full complement of the musical's 18 songs is found on an expanded 2009 CD release, which is titled (like the stage musical itself) Edgar Allan Poe. This release includes the original 10 studio tracks, an orchestrated version of Tiny Star, and seven tracks taken from live concert performances. The running order of the Edgar Allan Poe CD is:

The 2009 CD release Edgar Allan Poe effectively supersedes the 2003 Poe: More Tales of Mystery and Imagination, since it contains all of the earlier tracks as well plus additional ones.
