From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka 1xsB@D  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum w&^_2<a2  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . U<mFwJ C]  
XKepk? E  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical u}I\!-EX!v  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather OMVK\_oXo  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish DZ~qk+,I  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why J
Veb$_0k  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes 1lLL9l{UVw  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the sM$g
fFx  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious m}dO\;  
methods. 251^>x.R

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave |p"E0av  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and Zw`vPvb!  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the "Wz#<! .r  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the ;P#c!  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing v8>?,N#  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that Gcseq  
never undermines the content. gI SP .

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his 8;
C_@  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton ~K-c-Zs#z  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Ikn)XZU^  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much 6:v$g  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off -! k$ Z  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of YGj3W.eH  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. .%pbKi `  
$]Vvu{  
So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is
zIyMq3  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the El}."}l&  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With wK_I"  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure cnUYhxE+s  
(that'll be the title track, then). 4nfpPNt
