COQUETSIDE. AKA and see "Coket Side." English, Reel. England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes, which he published c. 1800. Raven's version is a reprint from A Tutor for the Northumbrian Small-pipes, by J.W. Fenwick, published in the late 1800's. The Coquet (pronounced "Coke-it") is a river in Northumberland some forty miles long, flowing eastward to the North Sea. The notable Northumbrian piper Will Allan (1704-1779), father of the notorious piper Jamie/Jimmy Allan, was river-keeper of the Coquet.
