Happened across him on an old Whistle test the other day, thought he sounded oddly talented, he was doing 'last night'
with a percussionist,

looks like Robert Smith sounds a bit like Randy Edelmann from the 70's

anyone know anything about Duke though?

He's Irish, really rather good, and a top bloke too.

Yeah he's from Northern Ireland - his band Duke Special was support to Crowded House a few weeks ago in the Waterfront Hall - talented guy is Mr Wilson.
