A joy of a release from BGP through Ace Records, this limited edition Billy Hawks – Oh Baby! EP.

Headed up by a wonderful mod dancefloor filler ‘Oh Baby!’, this is an EP of four cuts from the equally amazing Heavy Soul album from Billy Hawks, the others being  ‘You’ve Been A Bad Girl’, ‘Whip It On Me’’ and ‘What More Can I Do?’. The latter three tracks appear on 7-inch for the very first time.

That all comes in London Records / Decca style sleeve featuring the two known images, both provided the singer’s brother.

Such a cool thing to have, both in terms of that packaging and of course, the music,. Do seek out Heavy Soul if you can (it is available as a double CD alongside Billy Hawks’ The New Genius of the Blues) and perhaps make room in your collection for the limited edition EP too.

If you want this vinyl, it is available to pre-order from Ace right now for £9.86 ahead of the 30th September release date.
