LARRY REDIGANS/REDICAN'S (REEL) [1]. AKA - "Rags and Tatters," "Raddigan's," "Rattigan's Reel (1)," "Redican's Reel (2)." Irish(-American); Reel. G Major (Flahery, Miller, Mulvihill/Mulvihill, Prior): F Major (Mulvihill/Greenall). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Cranitch, Flaherty, Mulvihill): AA'BB (Miller, Prior). According to the late Galway and New York flute player Jack Coen, this was the first tune composed by Irish-American fiddler and banjo player, Larry Redican [1] (1908-1975). Redican was born in Boyle, Co. Roscommon to flute playing parents but chose the fiddle and studied with Frank O'Higgins in Dublin before he emigrated to the United States in 1928. He worked for much of his life for the cosmetics company Estee Lauder in New York. Redican was a member of the New York Céili Band.
The alternate title "Rags and Tatters" (as, for example,on Mary MacNamara's 2000 album "The Blackberry Blossom) is perhaps one of the more ingenious miss-hearings of the name of the composer, Larry ‘Redican’, variously rendered at "Rattigan," "Redigan," "Rhattigan" and others.
