Luka at his best
This is one of Luka's most diverse albums, absolutely bursting with energy on minute, sweetness the next. There are a couple really surprising covers, and the rest original music that really covers an array of emotions.I owned this one years ago, but gave it to a friend as a gift assuming I...

Peddling the Light Poetic
This is Luka Bloom's second album, and it remains an astounding achievement. Like many Irishmen, he has a deep need to brood and give voice to his melancholy. He does so with such grace and passion, that it is hard to not get swept up by his emotional power. At the same time, he's got a...

Mellow moods and acoustic jams...
It's difficult to describe this album as it has a really unique style and sound. For some reason, the word 'cool' comes to mind. I first heard Luka Bloom on some obscure video channel playing his rendition of L.L. Cool J's 'I Need Love'. Luka Bloom's version is fantastic. Rather than drum...

Spirited
I love 90% of this album.Well, more accurately, a little more than that, as there are 12 tracks...This is the second album by Luka Bloom, though apparantly his fourth or fifth in all - he recorded some obscure, out of print albums in Ireland as Barry Moore, before swtiching personas, (and...

Solid Aalbum From a Solid Artist
Bloom's second album, after his stunning debut "Riverside," was, perhaps, destined to disappoint by comparison, but the fact that it comes so close to matching is a bold testament to his talents.This album begins with the startling "Mary Watches Everything," and ends with the simple, but...

Acoustic,Celtic,Poetic
Bittersweet poetry and haunting tunes make The Acoustic Motorbike a worthy addition to any music collection. The sound will stay with you long after a listen and the occasionally silly song, like the title track, makes a welcome change from the sense of pain that pervades the music. Even a cover...

One of my all-time favorites
This is beautiful music! Listen to the samples - especially "explorng the blue". I've owned this for years and never get tired of it. Makes a great Christmas gift too!

An impressive second effort!
What a great follow up to Riverside! I've been listening to Acoustic Motorbike in my car for weeks now, and I'm nowhere close to getting tired of it! :) It has a heavier mix of effects (delay, chorus, reverb, etc.) than the cleaner sounding Riverside and Turf, and it works well. I was...

What more can one say!
The Acoustic Mtorbike! the acoustice guitar played by luka is as good as would be heard anywhere. Apart from the song "The Acoustic Motorbike" (more in the tongue in cheek style of his more famous brother Christy Moore) all these songs are deep, crystal clear vocally, and stunning...
