Who Killed Marilyn?

“Who Killed Marilyn?” is a 1981 song by Glenn Danzig, about questions surrounding the death of actress Marilyn Monroe, with the titular question suggesting she was murdered. Though Danzig’s first solo single, other recordings of the song have since been included on various collections by the Misfits. The B-side, “Spook City USA”, was also recorded previously with the Misfits during the “Night Of The Living Dead” EP session, but that much faster version was not released until the 1996 release of the Misfits box set. Danzig claims that he and Misfits drummer Googy could not get Jerry and guitarist Doyle to practice and perform more often, and “Who Killed Marilyn?” fulfilled Danzig’s need to perform and release his songs on a more regular basis. Jerry claims he had no reason not to do the songs and doesn’t know why Danzig released a solo single. Other versions of this song have been released by the Misfits, but the Glenn Danzig version, along with its B-side, are only available on this single. The original 7-inch has been out of print since 1983 and original copies are worth a fortune. In 2015, Glenn Danzig remixed both songs and finally released them on this 12-inch EP in 2023. Side A contains the original mixes of both songs, while side B contains the all new remixed versions. Available on: Purple vinyl (SOLD OUT) Haze vinyl (SOLD OUT) Haze vinyl signed by Glenn Danzig himself! Comes in a gatefold sleeve. The haze vinyl copies are purple, black and white mixed. The unsigned copies are still in shrink, the signed one is out of its shrinkwrap but in a heavyweight protective sleeve.
