Artist	Track	Album	Label	Approx. start time
American fingerstyle guitar master Duck Baker has so many albums to his credit since he started out in the 1970's that it's hard to know where to dip in. Baker is equally comfortable playing traditional British and Irish folk music, modern and free jazz, old-timey country, blues, gospel and ragtime music, all with an ease that belies its difficulty. Duck currently lives in the UK but visits the states from time to time. Two new album releases-- "Les Blues Du Richmond : Demos & Outtakes, 1973-1979" on Tompkins Square and "Duck Baker Plays Monk" on Triple Point Records-- prompted his latest visit. Duck Baker visited Irene at WFMU to play a few tunes with a lively conversation in between.

Listener comments!
	7:01pm Raika: It feels so, so odd hearing the show on this day, following SSD. But that it's still on the schedule is great.
	🥁 7:01pm chris: happy to be hearing your show live once again, Irene!
	7:03pm dale: is it live?
	🥁 7:06pm chris: recorded live and being played back live. does that count?
	7:06pm Irene Trudel: Hi Raika, chris and dale! Yes, it is weird to be on this day/time, but grateful that I'm still here. "Live" music is what I'll be presenting over the summer. Dale, Duck is not actually here but we recorded this live, so chris is right, it does still count.
	7:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay Irene !
	7:11pm dale: i hate to admit i don't know duck baker - happy for the education.
	7:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...doesn't use a pick...& he does Monk! I love 'im already...
	7:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'We're all Folk Musicians.' - Monk to Dylan
	7:18pm Irene Trudel: dale & Rev. Rabbit, Duck has a very rich catalog to choose from. And when he plucks the strings, he sometimes pulls up on the strings. Amazing player!
	7:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love it.
	7:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now I'm thinking of Richard Thompson... Intricate - but not in a hurry to show off - concerned apparently w/ Beauty & Tone of all things...
	7:28pm Irene Trudel: I'm sure Duck knows Richard. He was really good friends with both John Renbourn and Bert Jansch. I found this out AFTER the session. He's back in January, so I'm going to have to bring him back then.
	7:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Half a show in and I declare this project a winner. Looking forward to the presentations the rest of the summer will bring.
	7:32pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Ken! I already have things recorded / booked through the beginning of July. Lots of good sessions coming up.
	7:33pm dale: this is jug band-y. sure it's a staple.
	7:34pm yipster: I used to listen to billy Murray sing doing the raccoon but yours is better duck
	7:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: Click here >>> www.wfmu.org... <<< to see who's on deck.
	7:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...still discovering Traditional sources of Dylan melodies & such... That'll go w/ seeing KenBurns' Prohibition thing...
	7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Rather Monk-ish itself, seems to me...
	🥁 7:56pm chris: this has been soooo so good. thanks, Irene and Mr. Baker!
	8:00pm Folsom: Irene did you do the engineering also? I remember there was one guy on the comment board that always wanted to know the engineer.
	8:00pm dale: thanks! see you next week!
	8:05pm em2c: some of the style in "I Shall Not Be Moved" reminded me of the old song "Ragged But Right"... I'm sure some chords were passed along... all part of the great folk music tradition
	🥁 8:32pm Summer and Michael: Shoot! We knew the new show was just an hour but we thought it was still starting at 9pm! Not up on the archive yet... will it be? <3
	4:55pm Irene Trudel: Folsom, if I don't say otherwise I am the mix engineer on these live sessions. In my outside life I work as a live music engineer for John Schaefer on Soundcheck, New Sounds and WQXR.
