Wondered how much this goes for these day's.

Also any history too, who played first & where would be good if any one knows, unless its never really had an airing which I very much doubt.

Also, do you rate it for those who dont know it here goes:

Play at full volume with bass cranked & hit the floor (well kitchen floor maybe)

Thanks for any info............enjoy.

Was usually 100-125, then 150, then loads turned up in 'the find' and there was one on Ebay every week. But I'd want 150 for mine. I think John Vincent was the first to try and break it, I have him playing it on a Wigan tape (2nd anniversary) but I don't think I ever heard it played out, ever.

She made a couple of other nice records as well didn't she, I've got something on my mind being one..

Personally I much prefer the b side 'why'. a quality track as a bonus if you buy it for the 'oh baby' side, but to my taste much cooler.

I thought it was a £50 record, used to be hard to shift.

I wasnt sure Tony hence the post, I quite like it as a tune, but didnt know owt about it.

BTW how you doin mate.

I quite rate it & the flip 'Why' also, i've played both sides at dos before & neither have received much warmth from the crowd, probably the sort of record a 'big' dj needs to start playing then i'm sure everyone will love it :thumbsup:

The only other person i've heard play it out in recent times was Cookie at a 'Southern soul movement' do a couple of years ago, don't think anyone danced to it then either!

Reckon 'i'd agree with your price Pete. Heard it played by various other dj's over the years but never really made it.

Just had to trade away my copy recently sadly. Great 2-sider. Strange Oh baby haven´t gone big to me. Great uptempo female northern to my ears . First heard it on one of those early brill LP northerncompilations (title just escaped me).
