From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka ^OA}#k NTW  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum a`|/*{  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . 2'pxA:  
7r}gS2d  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical KrbNo$0%  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather v3]q2*`G#  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish <F=j6U7   
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why 9
:=a FP  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes }.T$bj1B;V  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the 8-SVg

music is several steps above even Special's fastidious =,0E3:X^  
methods. {s`1+6_&Vz

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave 8^4X/n  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and nt5 ~"8  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the (bT\HW%m  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the BtqJkdK!;1  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing L)w& f  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that ^|sQkufo  
never undermines the content. FlkAo]

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his L50`,,WF  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton m&$H?yXW>  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang ]X-ZRmB`  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much sJ0y3)PQ  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off 2ag]p  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of c9'#G>&h~^  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. cAiIbh>c

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is =1esUO[nx  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the ~ R*6w($  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With IC{>q3  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure APLu?wy7s5  
(that'll be the title track, then). .z{7 rH
