Mr Grumbold playing a very silly blues songs at St Lukes Hall in Hoylake... methinks around the end of 1974. Rescued from a sadly deteriorated cassette!
progressive silly

Original songs from the mid to late 1970's. My first adventures in songwriting and performing. Good times
It exists therefore it am. They came from inner space and left no turn unstoned. The journey began and nothing was ever the same again (or during). Are you ready to cruise with the Spaceship Vicar?

Story behind the song
There was no point to this song whatsoever other than being a convenient 12 bar to jam along to, with very odd lyrics. Rob Paary's guitar is crazy and Henri's violin equally manic. The Bass was stomach churningly bassy and the King just hammered those drums like there was no future. An absolutely awful recording, but ... hey... nostalgia not what it used to be. However I do remember a strange moment when Mr. Grumbold played at the Moonstone pub, Liverpool (in August 1976,) when I took a bathroom break during the interval. I very tall dark-skinned gentleman, came over, stood way closer to me than I was comfortable with when relieving myself and said into my ear (as though whispering a secret) 'I peel-ed your nostrils right back to your ears', laughed, then said something like 'Funny sh** man' and walked away. It was a trifling unnerving. So, whoever he was, this ones for him LOL
Lyrics
Nostrils (Adrian J Pratt 1973ish) When I woke up this morning I pealed your nostrils right back to your ears I said, When I woke up this morning I pealed your nostrils right back to your ears I would have peeled them even further But they wouldn't stretch Well later this evening I nailed a carrot right into your head Later this evening I nailed a carrot right into your head I looked over to you And you were dead.
