X:696 T:Rights Of Man, The B:Treoir 2003 M:C| L:1/8 R:Hornpipe N:This hornpipe is well known among Irish traditional musicians for many eyars. This N:setting was recorded for the Gramophone Company in London in January, 1910, by N:Scottish melodeon player, Frederick James (Fred) Cameron, who was born in Elgin in N:1883. He spent his working life as a tailor. Before the First World War he was in N:great demand to play at weddings, Harvest Homes, Concerts and in dance halls. During N:service in the First Wrold War he was badly wounded and an arm had to be amputated, N:which meant he couldn't play the melodeon anymore. He then taught himself to play N:the cornet. He died in 1949.
