From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka $Ptk|qFe  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum A//?6OJx?  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . >.9eBz@  
( `' 8Ww  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical (ClhbfzD  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather #m. AN  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish :1fagaPg  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why +`en{$%%  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes =6%|?5G  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the 1IH[g*f  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious vS;'}N  
methods. '8Wv.X0`

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave _+QwREP  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and =v-2@=NJ`K  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the a%
,fXp>  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the 4I~i)EKy6  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing z_SagU,\  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that $3 8gs{+  
never undermines the content. -e>|kPfv!

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his tB6k|cPC  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton 8[5|_Eh+  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang PnWD}'0V  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much ,+L KJl  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off +$pJ5+v  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of ey1Z/|  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. :$H!@n*/R

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is QlzQ]:dWC  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the [%8@DC'  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With zXre~b03ZS  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure `BT*,6a  
(that'll be the title track, then). qi=3L
