From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka
nT|fDD|  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum 4s`*o/it  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . E_WiQ?p   
kf>'AbN
 
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 1ErH \!  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather "TtK!>!.  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish mg'-]>$$]  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why w'M0Rd]  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes %PlPXoG=  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the *XtZ;os]  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious qf

methods. Htsa<tF

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave 1grrb&K  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and 9=3V}]^M  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the c$uV8_V  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the S'E6#   
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing q%>L/KJ#  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that >2VB.f  
never undermines the content. D"A`b{z

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his M
It\[EB  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton d6hWmZVC  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang 3)Paf`mr  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much %f{
kT<XHu  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off N@j|I* y|  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of )C|>M'g@v  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. ~"=nt@M]

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is >mt<`s  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 
Mw+]*  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With pOS.`rSK  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure O'idS`  
(that'll be the title track, then). .[O*bk
