Anaconda
St. Louis, Missouri
1970-1972
 

 Joe, Bob and Chris went to high school together. Tim was Joe's brother. While we did play the standard "cover tunes" of the era, not many people had ever heard any songs by The New York Rock & Roll Ensemble so they thought that those songs were our original compositions. Of course, we did nothing to discourage that impression.
