Jerry Allison from The Crickets personally remembers that the song, along with three others, was recorded at Tinker Air Force Base. "Maybe Baby" was recorded at Tinker Air Force Base in Midwest City, Oklahoma on September 29, 1957, while Buddy Holly and The Crickets were on a tour (and played that same night, at Oklahoma City Municipal Auditorium with the Show Of Stars '57). The rather simple lyrics are augmented by a twangy percussive accompaniment, characteristic of rockabilly, which is especially effective in the 8-bar instrumental introduction and the short conclusion. The single also reached number 8 on the Billboard R&B chart and number 9 on the Canadian charts. "Maybe Baby", originally recorded by Holly and the Crickets in 1957, reached number 17 on the US charts and number 4 on the UK chart Holly toured in the UK that year (see Buddy Holly discography). 1957 sheet music cover, Nor Va Jak Music, New York
