Legend is a musical biography that started when Albert Hammond wrote blue boy, his first song, when he was only 11. "A ship Arrived AT Gibraltar carrying many school children from Scotland, And I went There To sing for Them. i fell in love with A red-haired girl, And when The ship set sail i couldn't stop crying. I went back home and wrote blue boy", Hammond remembers. That was the first of a long list of songs that today, 55 years later, place Albert Hammond as a first-class composer. Many of those songs are included in legend.
