From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka EF'8-*  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum Y)DF.ca(  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . \4>& zb4  
>.-4CJ])d  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical A+( + PfU  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather 5aNvGI1  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish g-4ab|F  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why 'l_F@ZO{(  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes 12tk$FcY8*  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the $4hi D;n  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious Cng_*\=O  
methods. bZpx61h|

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave gObafIA  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and K|=va>
   
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the 3!` _Q%  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the ~ U5Tn3'~  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing 8\p"V.o>  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that !\cVe;<r  
never undermines the content. MhIHfW]b

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his X2'XbG3  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton S" (Nf+ux  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang v7,-Q*
 
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much >96+s)T%;  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off l[[^]__  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of X6xs@tgQ  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. zF(abQ0

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is t+D= @"BZP  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the (S2E'L L{  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With h=^UMat-  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure |-z"6F r-  
(that'll be the title track, then). bmJdZD7-<k
