From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka <f0yh"?6VH  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum @9\E  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . rK4 pYo  
U[:Js@uH_  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 2t7=GA+j  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather \p)eY#A  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish iu{QHjZK(  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why A64c,Uv  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes M*dou_Q  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the $[b1_Db  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious {3 >`k.w  
methods. #*G}v%Ow/u

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave > Qh#pn*  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and u#0EZ2>#  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the UBx0Z0Y  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the mQ\oR|  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing ' &Nv|v\V  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that @>[3[;  
never undermines the content. ^k!u

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his Qq\hD@Z|  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton :Z]\2(x  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang D+*_iM6[-  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much weI lWxy  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off (@xr/9:i  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of wodff_l  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. /fxv^C82yv  
I0sw/,J/Z  
So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is QC+BEN$  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the do@BJWo  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With )eBCO~HS  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure #:nds,  
(that'll be the title track, then). ( z.\,M
