From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka Spx%`O<  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum r9N?z2X  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . Cj4Y, N  
k Qr  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical kO*\JaD  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather '6){~ee S  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish Ck !"MK4  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why =`|Bof R  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes Gvdok<o  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the /
D;ugc*3  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious X)iI]  
methods. #"!ga)a%L

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave 56c[$ q  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and 5vR])T/S0  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the z&9MkbH1  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the O.QR1  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing `W@jo~y<  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that L
-}Uj^yF  
never undermines the content. pGR3

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his ohx$;j  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton |4pl}:g/Z  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang ?qSwV.l]d  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much tCO?<QBE  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off 1Dhe! n#  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of VK*`&D<P  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. ke;=Vg|

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is f'5 6IT  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the nt()UC`5  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With $MQ<Q
