From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka E b-?wzh  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum <T)9mJYr  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . ctTg-J2.

I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical ~%qHJ4C  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather >~){KV1~  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish W#P)v{K  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why ``nuw7\C:  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes UA!-YTh  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the /1zi(z   
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious \L}Soe'  
methods. zy(sekX;

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave Om0Z\GP=  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and @.yp IE\  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the [c+[t3dz  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the "9!ln  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing Dkayk  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that EA7 8&  
never undermines the content. 7"yA~e,l

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his (@B gsY  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton E y1mlW  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang y#F( xm+L  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much cgNK67"(  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off v(W$
\XH  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of ^ b{0|:  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. J(ZYoJ

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is 3Wa^:8N  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the mDEO$:A  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With -|\V'  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure {f((x1{HZx  
(that'll be the title track, then). gtHWd;1&f
