The Eric Bonner "Boisforas" 2020 Tournament

[Hawk Kriegsman]

Thanks for the kind words Dan. 

As for "I Fought the Law".

It was written by Sonny Curtis in 1960 when he joined The Crickets on guitar after Buddy Holly's death. Earl Sinks  was the singer.  It was on the album "In Style With the Crickets".  It received little to no airplay.

It was release by The Bobby Fuller Four in December of 1965.  The song comes in both mono and stereo versions with variations in the guitar work and vocals. 

Bobby Fuller was found dead six months later of an apparent suicide. Many believe he was murdered. 

The song was also released in the US by The Clash in July, 1979.  This song got the band into the limelight in the US. 

And finally to tweak Dan's little ditty.

Broken tanks on the French Somme,  I fought the Hawk and the Hawk won.
