专辑介绍： wB.Nn/p  
U Z.=aQ}M  
From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka '
:gUOra|I  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum '3TW [!m  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . J9\a{c;.  
C8vOE`U,J  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical OCZ[D{i9@  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather H^.IY_I`U*  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish _~q?
_'kx  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why ;9~6_@,@o  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes ]8T |f  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the jM$`(Y  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious
^s@8VAwi  
methods. d

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave TQ{Han!  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and Ya;9]k8,  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the 8}fu,$$5  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the :.?gHF.?  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing AgRjr"hF*e  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that ^-rfvc  
never undermines the content. )r[&RGz6

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his C=s1R;"H  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton u~3%bJ]  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang 0b/WpP  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much F[
4;Xq  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off $8 p7D?Y  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of u5~Ns&o&
N  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. Z0`T\ay  
>yXN,5d[  
So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is C-8qj>  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 6Z`R#d #I  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With $2<d<Um~z  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure }hYZ" A~  
(that'll be the title track, then). ~GuMlV8
