From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka |Y&&g=7  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum hO] vy>i;  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . A$Ok^  
kx31g,cf]w  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical {ZIEIXWb2  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather ?0J&U4  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish urK~]68  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why %"CF-K@th  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes OH/!Ky\@  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the ~ NZ C0&  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious -"uOh,G}  
methods. X([p0W 9V(

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave t5RV-$  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and gJBw6'Z  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the jT=fq'RK  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the +;/ s0  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing 7_ s7);  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that #5%ipWPHb  
never undermines the content. TpcJ1*t

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his suHi
sc*  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton xSrjN  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang LK+67Y{25  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much . ZP$,  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off moRo>bvN~  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of w8cbhc  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. +CN!3(r

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is K-[;w$np0  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the L)c]i'WZ  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With Je4hQJ<h  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure |$g} &P8;  
(that'll be the title track, then). t;`ULp~&
