About this record
Pressed at Sonic, S.A. for the Spanish market under Discophon catalogue J-4285, this 1976 Bill Coleman and Ben Webster session carries a steep condition premium: a Mint copy fetches 11.55 USD while a VG pressing drops to 5.47 USD. Only 9 copies are listed for sale across all platforms, yet 77 collectors own one against just 10 seeking it—a supply-constrained title with modest collector demand.
What drives its value
The price curve on this Spanish pressing reveals why condition dominates the market. A Mint copy commands 11.55 USD; step down to NM and the value falls to 10.34 USD; VG+ sits at 7.90 USD; and VG drops further to 5.47 USD.
The lowest asking price across active listings is 3.50 USD, undercutting even the G+ grade estimate of 3.04 USD, suggesting distressed inventory or aggressive pricing. With 9 copies for sale and 77 in collector hands against only 10 want notices, this is a stable, low-velocity title.
Its status as a Black Lion Records reissue on a Spanish pressing plant (Sonic, S.A.) places it below original UK pressings in collector hierarchy, anchoring values in the single-digit range even at Mint grade.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Discophon label credit and catalogue number J-4285, paired with the Black Lion Records imprint. The pressing plant stamp—Sonic, S.A.—appears in the dead wax and distinguishes this Spanish edition from other Black Lion issues.
The record is a stereo LP with 7 tracks, released in 1976, and carries no barcode. Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for hairline scratches and the label for ring wear; Mint specimens show no visible play marks, while VG copies display light surface noise and minor label scuffing.
The absence of a barcode is consistent with 1976 Spanish pressings and does not indicate a counterfeit.

How much more is a VG+ copy worth than a VG copy?
A VG+ copy is priced at 7.90 USD according to the price guide, while a VG copy is valued at 5.47 USD. The difference reflects the collector preference for cleaner surfaces and minimal play wear on this low-circulation Spanish pressing.
Why is this a Spanish pressing and not a UK original?
The Sonic, S.A. pressing plant, located in Spain, manufactured this 1976 edition under the Discophon label for the Spanish market. Black Lion Records, the reissue imprint, licensed the master and distributed it regionally rather than pressing it at the UK plants used for original issues.
Is there a barcode on this record?
No. This 1976 Spanish pressing has no barcode, which is typical for Discophon releases of that era and region. The absence does not indicate a bootleg or unauthorized pressing.
