HEY MONA

Lyrics not available


According to Brucebase, this song was used with IT'S HARD TO BE A SAINT IN THE CITY in 1976 (read below). Not sure whether this is the same as MONA by Bo Diddley that was often used in 1977-1978 as introduction to SHE'S THE ONE, or a different song.


From Brucebase, about the 06 Nov 1976 radio interview on WNEW-FM radio station, New York City, NY:

Bruce went up to WNEW-FM studios in New York the Saturday following his Palladium shows to sit in with DJ Richard Neer. It was an interview with Bruce picking out some records to play. The interview was very topical; reference was made to Bruce shaving his beard, wearing a suit at some performances, Clarence appearing in "New York, New York" etc. Neer also asked Bruce if he would ever play larger venues and Bruce mentions the shows at the Spectrum in Philadelphia. They also talked a bit about Jon Landau which segues into the fact that Landau produced Jackson Browne's The Pretender which was released that week and Neer plays a cut from that. Studio cuts were sequed into Bruce songs; BO DIDDLEY into SHE'S THE ONE; HEY MONA into IT'S HARD TO BE A SAINT IN THE CITY. Thanks to Riccardo for the info.
