He performed on television and radio in many different countries over the years. Duncan Swift also made many other recordings with fellow musicians during the course of his career. This includes a solo piano record for the Black Lion titled The Entertainer recorded in 1969. Also, a solo piano tape Tudor Blues performed on his own Bechstein Grand Piano at home in Bewdley. Later, he produced a CD called The Key of D is Daffodill Yellow in 1992 which was recorded at William Bird's 'The Piano Salon' at Avening Recording Studio for Duncan Swift's Records.
