| There are 2 or three other songs off this album that are also good.
It's on my list (with six bazillion other albums :7) ) to buy.
I think his brother is Christie (sp?) Moore, and that they are Irish,
but that is all I can recall as far as band names, etc. He evidently
got tired of being referred to as C.M.'s brother a few years ago, so he
changed his name. I wouldn't read too much into that.
There is a serious, low-key hip-hop number called "I Need Love" that
ends the career of one of my best one-liners about 'celtic rap' music.

| Luka is from the Vega song and Bloom is from Leopold Bloom, "hero" of James
Joyce's navel "Ulysses", which is set in Dublin.

| His new album is his second. Some of the stuff on his first,
"Riverside" is OK, but I didn't get too worked up over it. He's a
crossover type straddling the Irish folk scene (where his brother
Christy is a big name) and alternative rock.

| I'd've been considerably more impressed with "L. Boom" as a pseudonym.
> Joyce's navel "Ulysses", which is set in Dublin.
Is this a reference to the use of "omphalos" in the first episode?

| A fan once rushed up to Janes Joyce and gushed,
"I'd like to kiss the hand that wrote 'Ulysses.'"
Joyce held out his hand:
"It did a lot of other things too."
Fan decides not to kiss hand.

| Heard him on the radio this morning. Decent tune, okay voice, but this
guy had some *serious* strumming goin' on! Great right hand.

Can't resist a similar anecdote about James Thurber: a fan once came up to him
at a party,
Fan: I want to have your babies
Thurber: What, you mean by unartificial insemination??
OK, back to Luka Bloom...

"I Need Love" is a great one. Also that Elvis tune "Can't Help Falling
In Love".
