Johnny Duncan

There are two notable musicians named Johnny Duncan, but based on the releases you listed—including “Last Train to San Fernando”—this refers to Johnny Duncan, the American-born skiffle musician active primarily in the 1950s. Johnny Duncan was born in Tennessee in 1932 and moved to England in the mid-1950s, right at the height of the skiffle craze. He became best known for his energetic, country-tinged skiffle style, and his biggest hit, "Last Train to San Fernando," was a lively, catchy tune that climbed the UK charts in 1957. His music mixed elements of American country, folk, and early rock and roll, and he became a popular figure in Britain’s music scene during that decade. Though his popularity was relatively brief, Duncan's work remains a fondly remembered part of the skiffle era.
