From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka #4"eQ*.*"  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum r4X\/  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . (~5]1S}F  
/F|VYl^_  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical *V+,X  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather xC0y2+)|  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish ?|}qT05  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why d( ru5*p  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes ;l0%yg/}  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the (JjxrZ+L  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious 9`VY)"rJ  
methods. :9x]5;ma

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave jA~omX2A  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and SdMLO6-  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the SfrM|o  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the h -091N  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing L*4=b (3  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that X_bB6A6  
never undermines the content. 8WpNlB+:{

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his q@VIFmqY!  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton nox-)e  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang saQo]6#  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much &t_TLV 8T  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off Z0'LD <  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of U#w0E G  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. ZZ :*c"b:

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is ]-a
/)8  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the G-]<+-Q$4  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With OR'e!{  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure "WXUz  
(that'll be the title track, then). 3i4m!g5Z?
