From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka n%}Vd `c  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum (X}Q'm$n\h  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . h6C:`0o  
3hbUus  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical D-4\AzIb  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather O7GJg;>?  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish L'$;;eM4  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why  h@"u==0  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes =9'px3:'WR  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the 8nOent0a  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious $Y31YA  
methods. 3rQ;}<*M

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave BA cnFO  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and [d/uy>z,  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the X6lUFk o  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the :OvTZ ?\  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing #{o
GmzG!  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that +p#Q|o'  
never undermines the content. [n{c,U F

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his 8mpoY.E4!  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton ?g\SF}2  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang L-\o zp  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much voAen&>!  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off 3om4q2R  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of v<wR`7xG  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. KJ&~z? X

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is ~GZpAPg*  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 3"XS#~l%  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With >'GQB  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure !O-9W=NJ  
(that'll be the title track, then). !WD~zZ|
