About this record
The Spanish pressing of Fresh Fish Special carries the matrix 064-060560-A G on side one and 064-060560-B R on side two, both stamped at EMI-Odeon, S.A. in Madrid rather than the US original on Private Stock PS 7008. Demand signals a collector gap: 36 want this pressing against 77 who own one, a ratio that reflects its scarcity relative to the American release.
What drives its value
This 1978 Spanish edition commands attention because it was pressed by EMI-Odeon, S.A. rather than a US plant, making it a distinct object from the domestic Private Stock PS 7008 issue. The community data shows 77 collectors hold a copy while 36 actively seek one—a want-to-have ratio that signals steady but not frenzied demand.
The catalogue number 10 C 064-060-560 and the specific dead-wax stamps (064-060560-A G and 064-060560-B R) allow precise identification. Condition variance matters sharply on European pressings of this era; the price_guide data is absent from this input, so current market value cannot be stated numerically.
Rarity among Spanish Private Stock issues and the Link Wray collaboration draw specialist interest, particularly among rockabilly collectors who prize original 1978 vinyl.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number 10 C 064-060-560 printed on the spine and front cover. The label should read Private Stock and reference EMI-Odeon, S.A. as the manufacturer.
Examine the dead wax on both sides: side A must show 064-060560-A G and side B must show 064-060560-B R—these matrix stamps are unique to the Spanish pressing and distinguish it from the US original. The release notes printed on the back cover include the line Editado e impreso por Capitol, una división de EMI-Odeon S.A. and Made in Spain EMI-Odeon S.A., confirming manufacture at the Madrid plant.
The 10-track album features The Wildcats (Billy Cross, Rob Stoner, and Howie Wyeth) and credits backing vocals recorded at Woodland Sound Studios, Nashville. No barcode appears on this edition.
Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light and testing playback; European pressings from this plant often show variation in pressing quality and surface finish.

Frequently asked
How do I tell the Spanish pressing from the US original?
The catalogue number is the first checkpoint: this Spanish edition is 10 C 064-060-560, while the US original carries PS 7008. Check the dead wax on both sides—the Spanish pressing reads 064-060560-A G on side one and 064-060560-B R on side two. The back cover text will include the Spanish-language credit Editado e impreso por Capitol, una división de EMI-Odeon S.A., confirming the Madrid plant.
Why is this pressing harder to find than the US version?
The community data shows 36 collectors actively seeking this Spanish edition against 77 who own one. European pressings of 1978 rockabilly releases typically had smaller initial runs than US issues, and fewer copies have survived in collectible condition. The Private Stock label had limited distribution in Spain, concentrating demand among specialists.
What is the pressing plant, and does it matter?
EMI-Odeon, S.A. in Spain manufactured this edition. The plant code appears in the dead wax (the G and R stamps on sides A and B) and on the back cover. EMI-Odeon pressings from this era are known for variable quality control; some copies show superior vinyl clarity while others exhibit surface inconsistency, making condition assessment critical.
What musicians are credited on this album?
The backing band is The Wildcats, comprising Billy Cross, Rob Stoner, and Howie Wyeth. Backing vocals were recorded at Woodland Sound Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, with engineer Rex Collier. The release notes include special thanks to Bill Justis and Matthew Murphy, and a dedication in memory of Ralph Masucci.
Does this pressing have a barcode?
No. This 1978 Spanish Private Stock edition was issued without a barcode, which is typical of European pressings from that period. The catalogue number 10 C 064-060-560 and the matrix stamps in the dead wax serve as the primary identifiers for inventory and pressing verification.
