Hah! Just dug mine out. Clifford's right. Mine was issued by EMI-Odeon SA, Madrid, but there's a sticker on it saying "reissued and distributed by Fresh Sound Records". And the label says "Fabricado en Espana by Discos CBS SA". But it's also got a little JASRAC logo on it, which was Japanese, I think.

So it's got nearly everyone's fingers on it, this one.

Even better is Sonny Criss' "Criss at the crossroads", which I just dug out. That's copyright 1959 & 1986 MCA Records SA, A Warner Communications Company (!) Special edition of WEA Records SA, by Fresh Sound Records. But again, manufactured by CBS Spain. This one doesn't have a JASRAC logo, though.

By 1987, Fresh Sound weren't saying anything about the majors on the Criss "Live in Italy", which was of course an original FSR. And it was manufactured by Sonic SA.
