JOCK DUNCAN (1925-2021) was brought up in the ballad-rich farming country around New Deer and Fyvie in the Buchan area of Aberdeenshire and was one of Scotland’s great traditional singers and one of the last to inherit his songs from a living oral tradition. Many younger singers have been inspired by his songs and by his magnificent style and presence in performance.
