“The Ace and Deuce of Picking” is another collection of (mostly) Irish and Scottish tunes that aims to compliment Duck Baker’s 1980 record The Kid On The Mountain and the 2000 follow-up, My Heart Belongs To Jenny. Only two of the performances collected here have been previously released. There are five tunes that have not appeared on any Duck Baker release, and a couple of others he never recorded solo. Many of the remaining titles did appear on anthologies, but the performances collected here are superior, apart from the audio quality. The rest are unreleased performances of tunes that came out on records that were not focused on Irish and Scottish material.
