first self titled
then refelctions which was made 2nd but released as third album
then faithful friends
then they changed their name to new york rock ensemble [ leaving the "roll" out of it]
then came roll over their fantastic real rock album and should have been a big hit seller
then their last album freedomburger which was ok but sadly not up to par with any of the previous. their version of a whiter shade of pale [ procol harum] was decent
then and not really a combined group effort as all that was left was michael and dorian called new york rock [ only album not released on cd yet. it is a nice album but not a nyrre or nyre album!
then there was a release on a no name label from new york called
“former members of new york rock ensemble” with only cliff and marty from original band. it also is interesting but the production is thin and is also not an nyrre or nyre album. it is very rare to find and has not been released on cd either nor do i believe it was a legit release to begin with or maybe an after thought for tax purposes i would have to guess.
so there you have it !
also they co starred in a hippy western called zachariah during their roll over album period and also on a earlier 1960’s b&w arty film made in long island new york called out of control where they do some of the background music not found on any album.
