From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka =AJ I3'x  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum r.;(Kx/M  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . Rd.[8#7VE

I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical P =9Zm  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather Ctxx.MM  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish $W;IW$  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why 0\y@etb:mf  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes ^y"$k  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the E0*'AZi&  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious `-N&cc  
methods. cnOk

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave s:/.:e_PU  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and Th%1eLQ  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the :
[N[D#/z  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the =`X@+~%-  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing 3EcmNwr
 
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that hoihdVjv  
never undermines the content. hqY9\,.C

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his Co19^g*  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton |7
/B20  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang *ma/_rjK  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much *<U&DOYV:  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off 2ezuP F  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of fwAN9zs  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. c)SSi@< cv  
=O)JPo&iwY  
So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is H8K<.R Y  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 9rao&\eH  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With ;^DUtr ;  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure &J hN&Ur  
(that'll be the title track, then). U&3*c+B4
