From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka GQT|T0>Ro  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum }KJ/WyYW  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . 6D) vY  
]l`?"X|^  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical RKRk,jRL  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather }[?

more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish
u6|P)8?`  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why ) 3Eax_?Z  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes ~G,n>  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the 3]/w3|y  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious pl'n 0L<l  
methods. izOtt^#DZt

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave gy,B+~p  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and qJUu9[3'm  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the (7&[!PS  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the %5$yz|:  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing 9tqX77UK  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that fk;39$[  
never undermines the content. ,C!MHn^$

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his C {gYrz)  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton 8+Oyhd*|  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang bv-s}UP0  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much ps^Z)x`GV  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off sYgpK92  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of D<C ZhYJ  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. /mF%uI>:

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is cC b'z 1  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the P

found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With 02SFFqm  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure S"V
