Description
Up for sale is a really scarce LP (12 inch, 33 RPM, vinyl record) featuring the best local rock bands in New Orleans. They were selected in 1985 as part of "Stroh's (Beer) Superstar Talent Search" by radio station WRNO FM 100, which at that time was known as "The Rock of New Orleans".
Album Title: "The Rock Album Vol. III" Album Subtitle: "The Best of the Old and the Best of the New" Artists: Multiple (see listing below) Record Label: Starstream Record Company (Houston, Texas) Album Number: SSTS-015 Produced by Michael Costello, Program Director, WRNO Radio, New Orleans, La. Date: 1985
As noted by the title, this album is the third in the series. The first was issued in 1981. Volume II appeared in 1983. For Volume III, it was decided to feature "encore performances" by the first, second, and third place finishers in the prior two competitions. These six songs appear on Side One. Completely new songs are featured on Side Two.
Side One (Best of the Old):
- Hustling in Hollywood (Persia, formerly known as Royal Orleans)

NOTE: I also have the first album in the series (called WRNO FM 100 The Rock Album) for sale with the auction ending the same time as this one. If you are the winning bidder on both albums, I will be happy to combine shipping based on the combined shipping weight. I will invoice you with the details.
Attention US Buyers: I will ship by USPS Media Mail or by USPS Priority Mail, your choice. Please note that if you have a Military Mail (e.g. APO) address, I must ask that you pick USPS Priority Mail as it is my understanding that USPS Media Mail is not reliable to Military Mail addresses.
Attention International Buyers: I will ship by USPS First Class International Mail (to selected countries where E-Delcon is available) or by USPS Priority International Mail (worldwide), your choice. Please note that the price does not include any customs that may be charged by the country to which this is delivered. (There are about 35 countries that have e-Delcon service. You can find a list by searching the web for “USPS e-Delcon”. If your country is on the list, but you are not being given the option of purchasing by USPS First Class International Parcel, please contact me before purchasing and I will attempt to change the settings.)
