Introducing The Cruelest Sport Theme Song

Play at high volume and at least try to get to the trumpet solo, which sounds like Sugar Ray Robinson in action.

From the album Indestructible on Blue Note Records.

Damn fine choice CA. Your tastes are way too refined to be a boxing writer. I can think of a few boxing sites/blogs that might have "Hey Hey We're the Monkees" or perhaps "Jean Genie" as their theme songs.

Hi JPF,

Thanks. I have some "behind the scenes" cyber-software that tracks traffic on TCS and you are literally the only person to have clicked on the Theme Song out of billions with internet access! I'm not down with The Monkees, but Bowie is all right. Saw him in concert in 2002....rocked "Ashes to Ashes...."

CA,

Someday you'll have to school me on jazz, like you did with the boxing books. Believe it or not, I do have "Moanin'" on my computer. Good stuff.

I like Bowie too, "Jean Genie" was probably too good a track to suggest for the other blogs/sites, probably should've went with the Stones lost classic "Cocksucker Blues."

I'm gonna search out this album "Indestructible."

Hi JPF,

I think "Diamond Dogs" might make for a good them song....jazz CDs are relatively cheap, so it's easy to get a good collection started..."Indestructible" would make a fine first purchase....Stick to pre-1968 and you'll be fine!
