From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka oMVwIdf  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum )<|TEp4r-  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . tX_eN  
y/FisX  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 3,[2-obmi  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather t&xx-4  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish anvj{1  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why fin15k  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes HT&0i,`  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the

music is several steps above even Special's fastidious >&VL2xLy  
methods. t'J fiG M

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave cNVdGY%&  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and JVkawkeX  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the |^F-.

listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the Vo%d;>!G\;  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing g|P hNo  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that |(SW  
never undermines the content. "|.(yN

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his =(

appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton  q0~_D8e,  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang x3Ud0[(  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much zgqw*)C~  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off AV
p[gr  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of wL

Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. G DV-wPX

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is _#C}hwOR>X  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the q}5A^QX  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With i.sq ^]j  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure qx)k1QY  
(that'll be the title track, then). 2An`{')
