“In a 1960 Auckland Star write-up with Marlene at 20 and her Epsom fruiterer father, William Tong, who espoused the love of traditional Chinese music, she said: ‘It’s dreadful. That clang, clang, clang gets on my nerves. Of course, jazz gets on Dad’s nerves, so we’re even. But I think he is secretly proud when he hears me on the radio.’” (Rosa Shiels, 31 Jul 2020, Audio Culture)
