From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka 0;b% @_E  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum PuuO2TZ  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . 7,sslf2%K  
>lo,0oG  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 0<{+M`G/  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather S}=euY'i  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish 8h&Ed=gi  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why FQbF)K~e  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes F

Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the }}";)}C`  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious 5z8!Nmb /  
methods. z;dD }Fo

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave n$*'J9W~  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and 7*e7P[LQU  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the ~aK@M4  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the NR8YVO)5$  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing D\~*| J  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that lNcXBtwK@#  
never undermines the content. n

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his w l.#{@J]<  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton -5Qsc/s&  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang ORPQ1%tu  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much 5*=a*nD11  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off $a|D
R  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of 5>J{JW|  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. IS;F9{

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is zbt>5S_  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 9Wng(ef6G  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With YYDLFtr2  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure g>h5NrDN  
(that'll be the title track, then). \>NjeMuWU
