From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka z{wZLqG  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum FXG,DJ:  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . 5 iZx -M  
s0\}Q=s[  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical }P\J?8  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather 5H}d\=z  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish <TEDqQ  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why ["0DXm%t  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes r<OqI*7  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the L2> )HG
 
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious ?%ei+  
methods. KmpKyc[

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave 4Hq6nT/  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and /RemLJP F  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the [Wn6d :  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the 8SOfX^;o  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing  Q5

dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that 1 &-%<o  
never undermines the content. vl>_;}W7

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his Z> <,t~o}  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton iJSyi;l|  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang C
Z.HQc  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much mk[<=k~  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off <(_${zR  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of `teaE7^Wm  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. plgiQr #

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is j$Vtd&  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the rqEP!S^  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With b5?k)s2  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure CO{AC~  
(that'll be the title track, then). u"-."_
