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 melodic material, including "Whiskey before Breakfast" and "Speed the Plow." The second strain is a variant of the same part in the Québec tune "Galope de la Malbaie", also called "Mackilmoyle Reel."
