Excalibur is a concept album by Grave Digger about the story of King Arthur and the knights of the round table. They had quite an impressive line-up for the backing vocals to this album with Piet Sielck, Hansi Kursch, Hacky Hackmann + Boltendahl.

The album is about the King Arthur's mythology.
"Pendragon" is about Uther Pendragon, father of Arthur.
"Excalibur" is about the powerful sword handled by Arthur.
"The Round Table (Forever)" deals with the principles of the Knights of the Round Table.
"Morgane Le Fay" is about the witch Morgane.
"The Spell" is about the enchantment that Nimue used in Merlin to gain his powers, after a promise of sex and love.
"Tristan's Fate" is about the tragic history of Tristan and Isolde. Tristan here is a knight of the round table. (In some tales, he's not even connected to Arthur)
"Lancelot" is about the love of Lancelot (Arthur's knight) for Guinevere (Arthur's wife).
"Mordred's Song" is about the treachery of Mordred.
"The Final War" is about the last battle to Arthur and Mordred. Arthur ends mortally wounded.
"Emerald Eyes" is Arthur's last words to Guinevere.
"Avalon" is about the fantastic island that Arthur went, where he died.
"Parcival" is about the knight called Parcival and his quest for the Holy Grail.

All lyrics by Chris Boltendahl and Yvonne Thorhauer.
