From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka v&}+ps_W  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum +<qmVW^X  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . &oi*]:<FNe

I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical 4r
Xjso|  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather dC&{zNG  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish }t.J;(ff:  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why ;yd[QT<I<  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes kQm\f  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the m]}%Ag^x  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious }<G"w5.<

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave v(Vm:oK,  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and ?[Gj?D.Wc  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the +[W_Jz  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the rID_^g_tP8  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing uLr9*nxd  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that P?QVT;]  
never undermines the content. wO\,?SI4

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his XLG6f(B=F  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton AfQ?jKk&{'  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Z]Zs"$q@  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much BNA`Cc1VV  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off c{X>i>l>  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of Y@ &1[Z  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. {u7%Z}<0

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is (t^&L  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the I@sXmC2$\  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With c UJUZ@ol  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure j?eWh#[K"
