From Illinois to Culleybacky, Co Antrim, Duke Special (aka k`KGB  
Peter Wilson) has fashioned a follow-up to his multi-platinum <!d"E@%v@  
selling Songs from the Deep Forest . "8f? h%t  
j V3)2C}  
I Never Thought . . . resonates with equal amounts of musical h!@,8y[B  
cajoling and lyrical honesty. The mood throughout is rather JtKp(k&  
more sombre. Just check out the song titles ( Mockingbird Wish <i?a0  
Me Luck , Those Proverbs We Made in the Winter Must End , Why XKOUQ
c4!R  
Does Anybody Love? , By the Skin of My Teeth , Nothing Comes vT^Sk;E  
Easy , Nothin' You Can Do Can Bring Me Around ). Still, the Sb2v_o  
music is several steps above even Special's fastidious +xv!$gJEj  
methods. z`Wt%

Not even the ska-driven jauntiness of Digging an Early Grave c,EBF\r8*  
can take away from the overall sense of morbidity and \/`?  
foreboding that, curiously, never threatens to spoil the =JLh?Wx  
listening pleasure. This could be because Wilson has, over the x+5k <Xi}  
course of three albums, engineered the knack of mixing SUCUP<G  
dispiriting topics with a surefooted musical approach that '=E9En#@  
never undermines the content. imB#Eo4eY

Some people don't get Duke Special. They are put off by his d
;[u8 t  
appearance, which resembles a blend of Catweazle, a Grafton M5L{*>4|6  
Street busker and the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang R{Z-m2La  
Bang . They're also confused by his music, which owes as much kK>Xrj6  
to burlesque and music hall as it does to pop. Those put off |iYg >  
by such superficialities miss the most important aspect of m4w')r~  
Wilson's shtick: his forensic attention to detail. .\3`2

So forget the gender-skewing dreadlocks and eyeliner. Here is 8OhDjWVJ  
a guy who matches the lost art of the popular song with the 2C^B_FUg|]  
found sound of swirling pop/rock and symphony orchestras. With 5ABhj*7  
a bit of Bridie Gallagher thrown in for good Irish measure [s1pM1x  
(that'll be the title track, then). 0'Z\O
