?'$. -z:  
From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka j"$b %|  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum @1qUC"Mg  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . 1 FIiX  
<812V8<!  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical @ :  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather CPCB!8-5  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish VT~ ^:-]  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why 9787uj]Y}H  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes NNpa69U  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the $MVeMgPa  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious );.<Yf{c  
methods. +iDz+3v(

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave ~(doy@0M  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and WaO;hy~us  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the nOoh2jUM  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the "@<g'T0  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing vH\nL>r
 
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that [(^''*7r+T  
never undermines the content. Erymx$@P

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his g='2~c  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton R8Ei:f}  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang KqIe8bi^G  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much Vblf6qaBs  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off I Y-5/
 
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of mp$II?hZ*  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. |8?{JK sg

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is w5G34[v  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the '`VO@a  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With )$.9WlQ  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure SxQDqoA~  
(that'll be the title track, then). WQ
