Luka Bloom - Luka Bloom

This album was recorded in Dublin at S.T.S. Studio for an independent label, Mystery Records. It ran into legal difficulties almost immediately and was withdrawn. Three of the song, Gone to Pablo, Delirious and Over the Moon appear in different versions on the next album, however. Rodrigo is Home tells the story of 19 year old Rodrigo Rojas, burned alive on the streets of Santiago by members of the Chilean armed forces under General Pinochet. The Way You Talk to Me was inspired by the play 'Children of a Lesser God' by Mark Medoff. Te Adoro is regularly performed live though it hasn't been re-recorded.
