 verly Brothers\, Joe Cocker and Emmylou Harris’ Hot Band throughthe 70s 
 and 80s\, and is widely regarded by his contemporaries as one of thegreate
 st guitarists in the world – described as “the ultimate virtuoso” by

 d Andy Fairweather Low.“Highwayman”\, Albert's highly-acclaimed solo a
 lbum\, is a 12-track collectionof acoustic covers. Recorded live and captu
 red in a moment of trueinspiration\, this raw and emotional record pays tr
 ibute to many of Albert’smusical influences - the classic rock ’n’ r
 oll of the Everly Brothers’ “Bye ByeLove”\, the deep feeling of Rodn
 ey Crowell’s ballad “Till I Can Gain ControlAgain”\, and the centrep
 iece of the album in Jimmy Webb’s “TheHighwayman” - a powerful and d
 ramatic\, and most probably definitive\,version of a true musical masterpi
 ece.“Gypsy Man” is Alberts next solo album featuring his favourite Bud
 dy Hollysongs - a musician Albert has always held in high regard.In 2024 A
 lbert recorded his latest album\, “Lay it Down” at the legendary KonkS
