[78-L] Marilyn Monroe studio recordings..some info please

[David Lennick]

This solves one long-standing mystery..the 45 EP of "Some Like it Hot" was at 
the first station I ever worked at, CJRT (still a student operation at that 
time) and I knew it had 4 cuts, but only 3 MM vocals were on the LP. Was the 
vocal of Some Like It Hot ever in any release print of the film?

"Kiss" and "Do It Again" have MGM matrix numbers (53-S-3000-6, 53-S-3001-6 plus 
45RPM equivalents), recorded at Radio Recorders with Earle Hagen's Orchestra, 
January 9/53. Once again, did these ever sneak out as a promo?

What else is on the RCA EP of "No Business"? Heat Wave and After You Get What 
You Want were issued as a single.

The MGM Master Books also cross reference Marilyn to Volume 1 Page 673 where 
she's listed along with Jackie Paris as vocalist on "You Don't Know Him", "Keep 
it Simple" and "We're Not Children", issued on MGM E 3650, recorded February 
14/58. It's the Leonard Feather-Dick Hyman All Stars playing songs from "Oh 
Captain (Jazz Album)". Per Lord, it's Marilyn MOORE, not Monroe. Phew.
