"One toke o'er the line?......." Submitted on: 2009-10-11 |
|
| ...'the best of:Brewer & Shipley,takes me back to an almost idyllic,pastoral state of mind."Tarkio"(1971);"Shake off the Demon"(1972)are two of the more defining"albums"of my "High"school days..The crisp and tight harmonies,the excellent musicianship combined to create a serendipitious senario.They were great in concert(saw them at Georgetown).The songs are all outstanding;"Fifty States of..'and relevant today.Brewer & Shipley are to the Everly Bros as Flying Burrito Bros.are to..Buck Owens/Merle Haggard? |

How to get the best deal! Submitted on: 2009-04-08 |
|
| Buy this as an download album at just $6.99 and then download individually from "Tarkio Road" the songs "Song From Platte River", "Don't Want to Die in Georgia", "Can't Go Home" and "Seems Like a Long Time". Total cost = $10.95 and you'll have a total of 18 tracks. The four extra songs are well worth it. |

Missing A&M tracks Submitted on: 2008-07-16 |
|
| Unfortunately, this compilation is limited to the Brewer and Shipley material released on Kama Sutra/Buddha. Brewer and Shipley originally started out on the A&M label with a single eponymous album. The quality of the music on the A&M album was a magnitude better than that released on Kama Sutra/Buddha, inasmuch as it was more "progressive/underground FM" oriented. It would have been nice to include some of the tracks from the A&M label (my fave is "Green Bamboo")on this compilation through cross-licensing. |

Good Music Submitted on: 2007-09-26 |
|
| I always liked the song "One Toke Over The Line". I listened to the samples online at Amazon and liked the other songs on this album. They all remind me of a younger time and good music. |

Greatest Hits Submitted on: 2007-08-26 |
|
| Yes, and I mean, HITS plural. Brewer and Shipley were definitely NOT a one-hit wonder band, as at least one reviewer here said. I remember 3 Brewer and Shipley hits from the radio: "One Toke Over the Line" (gotta love the '70s!), "Tarkio Road", and "Shake Off The Demon". This is a fine collection of their best. There is another compilation with their two albums on one disc, but it does not contain "Shake Off The Demon". So this is ultimately the preferable disc. |
