Michael Brewer & Tom Shipley
are truly two who work as one.
Their trademark harmonies, intertwined acoustic guitars, and
socially-conscious lyrics carved a unique niche in America's soundboard
in the 1970s.
Their Top 10 hit "One Toke Over The Line" was largely responsible for
introducing Brewer & Shipley to the masses, yet their music careers
neither began nor ended with this one song. Said Michael Brewer,
"We were never about singles. Every song on our albums was just as
important as the next one. All of our albums, we meant to be whole
packages."
Former member of The Dillards, Mitch Jayne observed, "Album buyers understood
that these men were designers, not pop music freaks, and as prolific as
they were, they didn't write songs to any formula. Each album,
from Down In L.A. to Heartland, was a
meticulously
woven tapestry of fabric they had invented one song at a time."
