Its just me, and some other friends/soundclick collaborators from time to time. Im not the greatest musician/vocalist or home recording tech. These things are what they are - just me being me. Its more along the lines of a sonic journal/therapy thing. And Ive been helped a lot through this hobby of mine thats been happening now for over 20 years. Im one of those people that live somewhere out on the fringe of social circles(which are in very very short supply in my life at present). This hobby has been a great pressure release valve for me, and a great friend. I owe it a lot - and it always says "naw man, ya dont owe me nothin.. lets jam". Weepy enough for ya? LOL! I think its a wonderful thing. well, thats the "band". thank you, thank you.. And thanks for droppin' by, Jeremy

Story behind the song

Eric Jefferies(Karmabend) room mate Chris wanted me to write a song about a goblin and call it "The Strongest Goblin that Ever Was".. he also wanted the goblin to defeat a swamp fox, train an Ankheg, and survive a game of the ogres boulder toss.. and soo the goblin did, and the song was named as it is. as for what an Ankheg is.. well, i just googled it.. oh those D&D folk.
there are real incidents and places mentioned in this song..like the solway firth spaceman; the goblin hills in Mold & flintshire wales; gap of the goeblin in mortain france; goblin hall in yester castle, east lothian scotland; the legend of billy blind; goethe's alder king.. it all gives it a sense of reality.  and who's to say i didnt go to goblin hall to have a word with billy blind about the strongest goblin that ever was?

Lyrics

Billy Blind, The Alder King, of Yester Castle in East Lothian,
has been known to tell, through clicking claws, of the strongest goblin that ever was.
according to Billy it was just a redcap imp that trained an Ankheg how to dig 
and tear the gap in old Mortain,
and mould the Flintshire hills of fame.
the strongest goblin aye ever was
the strongest goblin that ever was
he sailed the Ant king through the earth
to become the spaceman of solway firth.
the strongest goblin that ever was
the strongest goblin that ever was
and he gave his goblin fire to man..
but they just dropped it on japan.
the strongest goblin that ever was
the strongest goblin that ever was
he visited the hidden folk
who gave him plenty of weed to smoke.
then packed his bags and traveled on,
 a puff of smoke and he was gone.
the strongest goblin that ever was escaped the swamp foxes jaws
the strongest goblin that ever was dodged the ogres boulder toss
the strongest goblin that ever was taught the Ankheg who was boss!
the strongest goblin that ever was!
(funny thing....)
but a milling, Kobold, warring Sprite?
no.. he never raised a hand to fight.
(what?...)
He wooed the Ankheg with his song 
and befriended the fox with laughter long.
and played their games with such delight
that it made the ogres laugh all night!
he is, I say with no hims and no haws,
the strongest goblin that ever was.
he learned to love and live this life
in harmony, as song is to fife...
he is, i say, with no hims and no haws,
the strongest goblin that ever was.
this goblin has no name nor face..
this goblin could be any in this place.
for he who learns to live and love..
will forever be.. the strongest goblin that ever was.
the strongest goblin that ever was escaped the swamp foxes jaws
the strongest goblin that ever was dodged the ogres boulder toss
the strongest goblin that ever was taught the ankheg who was boss
the strongest goblin that ever was never raised a hand or claw towards any of us!
and me, billy blind, the alder king, of yester castle in east lothian..
have been known to tell, through clicking claws, of the strongest goblin that ever was.
