COBBLER'S REEL [3] (Le Reel du Cordonnier). AKA - "The Shoemaker's Reel." French-Canadian, Reel. Canada; Gaspé region, Québec. D Major (Remon & Bouchard). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BBB' (Remon & Bouchard). A 'crooked' tune learned by Remon & Bouchard in the Gaspé, albeit without a name. They called it "Le reel du codonnier", as they were on tour with an ur-group that later became "La Bottine Souriante" (The Smiling Boot). In Québec the second part is usually played three times rather than two. Maritime fiddler Don Messer played a version of the tune he called "Spud Island."
