“Like your blog. Grew up in Detroit and know about being enriched by diversity. I heard this song and thought you might like it.”
-Gerard.
Gerard, my little brother, who is no longer with us, shared your name. And this Broken Bones song is now my favorite training tune. Thank you so much! I really appreciate this kind of thing. I spend no time surfing the net other then crawling through state and university archives and the Library of Congress.
Thanks.

Sorry about the loss of your brother. I still have all my siblings knock on wood.
Glad you liked the song. After sending it I remembered that mark knopfler had also done a song, believe it or not, about Sonny Liston. The video with the song has fight footage of Sonny Liston and is pretty good too. Here it is in case you haven't seen it. youtu.be/-ppdluPvCww
(I sent this earlier on my phone but then my phone did something weird that made me think my comment did not go through so I am re-sending it to you.)
Sorry that your brother is no longer with us.

"Charles L. "Sonny" Liston was an American professional boxer who competed from 1953 to 1970. A dominant contender of his era, he became world heavyweight champion in 1962 after knocking out Floyd Patterson in the first round, repeating the knockout the following year in defense of the title. Liston was particularly known for his toughness, formidable punching power, and intimidating appearance. Although widely regarded as unbeatable, he lost the title in 1964 to Muhammad Ali."
