BEN HEWITT

"FOR QUITE A WHILE" 

An Excellent ROCK AND ROLL song in Elvis"Don't be cruel"style!

The"B"side="PATRICIA JUNE",an uptempo mid paced rock and roll number. 

THIS SINGLE MADE  FAILED TO CHART IN THE USA TOP 130 AND OF COURSE BARELY SOLD,FAILING TO CHART IN THE UK AND IS QUITE HARD TO FIND 50 YEARS LATER!

POSSIBLY A SINGLE SPIN ON RADIO LUXEMBOURG AND PROBABLY NO AIRPLAY ON THE B.B.C. LIGHT PROGRAMME!!! 

A FACTORY SAMPLE LABEL DENOTES THIS IS A VERY EARLY PRESSING AFTER THE APPROX.200 DEMOS RAN OUT!  

SO HOW MANY SURVIVE  50 YEARS LATER AND AS GOOD AS THIS ONE??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   

MOST COPIES HAVE NOW ENDED UP IN LONG TERM COLLECTORS COLLECTIONS AND ARE GETTING LESS FREQUENT ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN 2009!!!

NOT A DODGY REPRO AS MAY EXIST

THIS IS A GENUINE UK 1959 45!!

 HOUSED IN THE  CORRECT ORIGINAL MERCURY"MUSIC FOR EVERY MOOD"COVER!!!!    

(MORE DETAILS BELOW)!!!

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VERY NICE RARE 45 OF THIS BRILLIANT SINGLE -THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!

A RARE 45 IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANY 1950s 45s COLLECTION!

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN DREADFUL CONDITION.

THIS COPY HAS ONLY THE VERY SLIGHTEST OF SURFACE NOISE AND VERY CLEAN SURFACES-NO NASTY MARKS/SCUFFS etc!

FLAT VINYL!NO WARPS! 

IN THE MANY YEARS I HAVE BEEN A DEALER AND COLLECTOR,I HAVE ONLY NEVER LOCATED A BEN HEWITT 45 BEFORE!

THIS ONE IS THE BEST AND WOULD LOOK GREAT FRAMED UP!

JUST LOOK AT MY PHOTO!

AN ELITE ITEM FOR ANY LATE 1950s 45s COLLECTOR!

SUPERB CLEAN LABELS WITH NO WRITING OR RIPS.

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD EXPERTS/DEALERS.  

FROM MY OWN COLLECTION!

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED DEALER,  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE!! 

DUE TO A LACK OF SPACE AND THE REALISATION THAT I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO PLAY THE MAJORITY OF MY HUGE COLLECTION,I AM PRUNING DOWN SELECTED ITEMS.

EMI PRESSED MERCURY

45-AMT 1055. 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN STRICTLY GRADED NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH ONLY ULTRA FAINT SURFACE MARKS AND JUST A LITTLE FAINT SURFACE NOISE AT HIGH VOLUME.

NO CLICKS/NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO SWISHES!  

SO OFTEN 45s WERE LEFT OUT OF THE COVER,BADLY TREATED OR EVEN THROWN OUT AFTER USE!

HARDLY ANY THOUGHT LONG TERM INVESTMENT!!!!

The Mono mixes are brilliant and full of bass.

Vinyl is still the best way to hear  AMERICAN ROCK AND ROLL and always will be!  

A FANTASTIC ITEM!

GREAT INVESTMENT FROM ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING RECORD EXPERTS! 

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is only a little spindle wear.  

THE PRINT IS STILL SHARP AND VERY CLEAR TO READ.

THE COVER IS IN FABULOUS ORDER:A FEW EDGE CREASES BUT NO STAINING/WEAR,NO WRITING, 

NO NASTY SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,NO STAPLES,NO HOLE CUTS ETC.

JUST A COUPLE OF TINY RIPS. 

Look elsewhere on ebay and MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often FAKES,reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN A VERY STRONG NEAR MINT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE " MINT"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.

AN OUTER PVC COVER WILL BE SUPPLIED AS WITH ALL MY RARE SINGLES AND EPs SOLD!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTO! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
