Discover the story of the song > Albany (feat Roger Whittaker) – Roger Whittaker

The song is about a place called Albany, which was once very important to the people who lived there. The story is told from the perspective of a man named Gordon, who was the oldest son in his family. His younger brother, Charles, became jealous and attacked him, but Gordon was able to defend himself and kill Charles. Later, the king's soldiers destroyed Albany to show their power, but the memory of the place and what it meant to the people who lived there still lives on.
