TIDDLE TOOK TODFISH. American, Reel (whole time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB'. Bayard was not able to trace this tune, though he notes a resemblance to "Cosmopolite (The)" in Cole's 1000 Fiddle Tunes (1940, p. 31). I believe that the first part of “Tiddle took Todfish,” however, is a variant of the second part of “Liverpool Hornpipe (1),” although there are several other tunes that have similar first-strain melodic material, including "Whiskey before Breakfast" and "Speed the Plough (1)." The second strain is a variant of the same part in the Québec tune "Galope de la Malbaie", also called "Mackilmoyle Reel."
