From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka X9 SJ~n  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum Q:rT 9&G  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . Xp.|.)Od  
Y*"<@?n8?x  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical hY)YX,f=S  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather \A~4\um  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish =y`-sU Hx  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why H9/XW6W,"w  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes EccFx7h  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the g}^4^88=a  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious m79m{!q$-  
methods. S|tA[klh

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave
)_WH#-}  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and sY&rbJ(P  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the [ @jp9D H  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the H)-L%l|9  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing 9[B<rz  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that E\W;:p,{A  
never undermines the content. >I{4

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his V>DXV-%&C  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton Hd Do&#  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang !N@Yh"c  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much Z8N@e<!*~8  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off X+fuhcn  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of W5M ]  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. XT\ Td}>  
'cWlY3%t  
So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is   eYPt  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the /2=_B4E2  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With f'8B[&@L  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure i+kFL$N  
(that'll be the title track, then). "0p +SZ~D
