JB Samzun & Charles Monod - Aughavinna - Irish Traditional Music from Doolin, Co. Clare

Rights of Man (The)

I learned The rights of Man during my very first summer in Ireland, back in 2006, on the tin whistle. It is my friend Stéphane who got me started, and I am ever so grateful for all the advice and tips he gave me, especially around his respectful approach to traditional music. I also associate this tune with the great album “Fire Aflame” by Matt Molloy, Seán Keane and the late Liam O’Flynn. Liam O’Brien, the great concertina player from Miltown Malbay, also recorded it on his album “The Lane”.
