HEY MARILYN
A Musical Biography of Marilyn Monroe
Book, Music and Lyrics by Cliff Jones

"It's sensational!...

….The Jones genius is fully evident from the beginning…Hearing the theme (title) song half way through it strikes a chord, but it is only after the finale that the song bursts through the clouds of emotion to become a haunting and painful elegy to a tormented woman…the tragedy of Marilyn Monroe has never been more poignant."   Halifax Mail-Star

"Jones has skilfully captured the essence of the kinds of music which marked the Monroe years…the lyrics are clear, frequently poetic, and intelligently organized to offer a sympathetically revealing biography of the star’s progress from foster-home waif to stardom to lonely death."
