From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka h1_KZ[X  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum wCr+/"t  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . iV%tn{fc

I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 5#?

cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather ~f2-%~  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish YsjTC$Tx,  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why !P:~oo=  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes YKj PE  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the A^7Y%  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious ! F&{I  
methods. d7QWK(d

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave FJ&?My,=J  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and .!Q[kn0a  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the \h/aD1&g  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the l< |)LDq~  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing r +l3J>:K  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that q(@hYp#O"3  
never undermines the content. i3y>@$fRL\

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his ZYW=#df R  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton Oz,/y3_  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang a _(vpD
^  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much ;lb@o,R :  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off cbA90 8@s  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of 8-R; &  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. z Tt6L6:u

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is B8G1 #V_jK  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the mm<rdo(`  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With
?To r)>A'  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure 4~{q=-]V  
(that'll be the title track, then). j.rJfbE|X
