We consider single-particle spectra of a symmetric narrow-band Anderson impurity model, where the host bandwidth $D$ is small compared to the hybridization strength $\Delta_{0}$. Simple 2nd order perturbation theory (2PT) in $U$ is found to produce a rich spectral structure, that leads to rather good agreement with extant Lanczos results and offers a transparent picture of the underlying physics. It also leads naturally to two distinct regimes of spectral behaviour, $\Delta_{0}Z/D\gg 1 $ and $\ll 1$ (with $Z$ the quasi-particle weight), whose existence and essential characteristics are discussed and shown to be independent of 2PT itself. The self-energy $\Sigma_{i\omega}$ is also examined beyond the confines of PT. It is argued that on frequency scales of order $\omega\sim\sqrt{Delta_{0}D}$, the self-energy in {\em strong} coupling is given precisely by the 2PT result, and we point out that the resultant poles in $\Sigma_{i\omega}$ connect continuously to that characteristic of the atomic limit. This in turn offers a natural rationale for the known inability of the skeleton expansion to capture such behaviour, and points to the intrinsic dangers of partial infinite-order summations that are based on PT in $U$.
