From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka ^gg!Me
 
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum E(Gr0#8  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . eyB_l

I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical -Ktwo_V*  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather 0m=(W^c  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish uiMIz?+  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why =5s$qb?#  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes 0dt"ZSm

music is several steps above even Special's fastidious -c={+z "  
methods. pVG>A&4

foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the ^H=o3#P~L  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the hyu}}0:  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing _*`q(dYcf  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that >q9{

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his `d`&R.'  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton x[Q&k[xV  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang PqfVX8/q0  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much Qj!d^8  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off 3o0IjZ=[>  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of }x0Z( `  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. sU%"azc

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is fsI`DjKi)  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the .@K#U52

a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure 065A?KyD
