~ Mr. Bird Rollins ~
The Best Of New Jersey's Number One Blues Star

Released 1980 by Rolcal Records # Rolcal 16

this is a Rare & Obscure Blues Title that we believe to have been
Privately Pressed by the artist himself. while we have never come across
this particular title before, we have seen others on this label that
all have a self-released feel. this is great original blues material with
long songs that feature great guitar and piano work and mostly
the lyrics deal with booze and drinking and hard times

this artist is also known as a.k.a. Bird Rollins and "The Good Man"
and this album is also known under two other slightly different titles:

"Rolcal Music Presents The Best Of New Jersey's Number One Blues Star"

"The Best On N.J.s #1 Blues Star"

~ condition ~


record is in Excellent Condition and has been
Fully Play Tested and Sounds Fantastic with just a bit of
slight crackle before + in between songs + there is a very small scratch
at the end of side A that causes some quiet pops/tics
but nothing bad. other than that, the vinyl + labels are clean
with only slight wear (a few other slight scratches
that don't interfere with the sound)

(see our multiple photos for more condition issues)

the cover is still in its Original Shrinkwrap
which has protected the cover beneath it nicely. there
is some wear and soiling to the shrink in places including a
small torn area at the top opening edge, but nothing serious.
the original price sticker is over the shrink on front.

~ Our Record Condition Guide ~


since everyone has their own ideas about grading the condition
of records, we've decided to spell out how we do it. our descriptions are
also extremely thorough & individually note flaws that a generic condition grade
cannot. we also occasionally assign a + and - for in-between grades

Mint

perfect, never played & usually still factory sealed

Near Mint

nearly perfect with almost no signs of handling

Excellent

the slightest visual wear that in no way interferes with the sound

 Very Good +

light visible signs of handling & wear but well taken care of
and plays with only mellow occasional crackle and/or soft pops but 
nothing interfering with enjoying the record/artwork

Very Good

obviously used & handled, but not mishandled, with no skips,
repeats or bad noise, but with noticeable crackle, pops & soft tics or
artwork defects, but nothing too bad overall

 Very Good -

considerable visible wear & background noise with possible
skips, repeats, tics and cover flaws, but still enjoyable & would
be obviously well-used and somewhat mishandled

So-So

anything below VG- which we rarely sell, except
for really rare records that are worth listing only because
they're so hard to find & sought-after in any condition

Disclaimer

not everyone's turntable sounds & functions the same, but we
have a nice sensitive set-up that makes flaws very obvious to us and we try
to note everything we ear and see. while vinyl is an awesome sounding format,
there is almost always some sort of background noise while listening to a
record. we are just about as picky as anyone, so trust us
but be sure to read our descriptions carefully!
