David Baird
Novelty recording artist
David Baird recorded Friday Neet (Gannin' Te The Toon), a comic account of a night out in Geordie dialect. The D.A.F. single is catalogued as a 1980 release, backed with Love Is Such a Good Thing.
The recording is thought to date from 1979. A later version is remembered as reaching audiences through the Sid the Sexist home video in the early 1990s.
