About this record

The COFASA pressing plant stamped this 1979 Spanish Polydor edition with runout matrices 2335 199 and 2335 200, distinguishing it from the original UK release and other territorial pressings. Quadrophenia's 21-track soundtrack compilation arrived as a gatefold package, with recording credits documenting sessions split between Ramport Studios in Battersea and overdub work at C.T.S.

Wembley. The Spanish market received a distinct manufacturing run that collectors often overlook in favor of early British copies.

What drives its value

This Spanish pressing sits in a competitive middle ground: 10 copies currently list between 9.95 and higher asking prices, with the price guide establishing a Mint value of 19.00 down to 9.00 for a VG copy. The NM grade peaks at 17.00, while VG+ holds at 13.00—a meaningful spread that rewards finding a well-preserved copy.

Community ownership stands at 307 have against 65 want, indicating steady collector interest without extreme scarcity. As a reissue territory pressing rather than the original UK release, it trades on condition and completeness of the gatefold; the absence of a barcode on this edition is itself a marker of the 1979 manufacturing era.

Demand-to-supply ratio favors the seller when the record grades above VG.

How to appraise this pressing

Confirm this pressing by the Polydor catalogue number 2625 037 and the COFASA plant stamp in the dead wax—look for either 2335 199 or 2335 200 in the runout grooves. The gatefold sleeve should carry the full Ramport/C.T.S. recording and overdub credits printed inside.

No barcode appears on this edition, which is correct for the 1979 Spanish release. Grading hinges on groove wear and surface condition: a Mint copy will show no play wear and silent surfaces; NM allows only the lightest signs of handling; VG+ permits light surface noise and minor marks but no skips; VG accepts light scratches and audible surface noise during quiet passages.

The 21-track sequence and two-sided matrix pairing (2335 199 / 2335 200) confirm you hold the correct pressing and not a later reissue or different territory variant.

Frequently asked

What is the price difference between a Mint and VG copy of this Spanish pressing?

The price guide lists Mint at 19.00 USD and VG at 9.00 USD. The actual market floor is 9.95 USD among the 10 currently for sale, so a VG copy may sell near or slightly above the guide estimate. Mint copies command the full 19.00 premium when they appear.

How do I tell this Spanish COFASA pressing apart from the UK original?

Check the dead wax for the COFASA plant mark and the runout matrices 2335 199 and 2335 200. The UK original was pressed at a different facility and carries different matrix codes. The Spanish pressing is a legitimate 1979 territorial release, not a counterfeit, but it is a reissue pressing rather than the first pressing.

Is the gatefold sleeve original to this edition?

Yes. The release notes confirm this pressing shipped as a gatefold with printed credits for the Ramport Studios and C.T.S. Wembley sessions. The gatefold is not a later addition and should be present on original 1979 Spanish copies. Condition of the gatefold affects overall grade and resale value.

Why does this pressing have no barcode?

Barcodes were not universally applied to vinyl releases in 1979, particularly on European territorial pressings. The absence of a barcode is correct and authentic for this Spanish Polydor edition and does not indicate a bootleg or damaged original packaging.

What does the community rating of 4.34 tell me about the record's sound quality?

The 4.34 rating across 29 collector reviews suggests consistent approval of the pressing and the soundtrack itself, though this reflects overall satisfaction rather than a technical measurement. With 307 collectors owning it against 65 seeking it, the record holds steady collector value and is not considered a poor pressing or undesirable variant.
