Michael Brewer (L) and Tom Shipley (Dirty Linen cartoon 2005)   Perhaps it would be a reach to call the 1971 folk-rock ballad “One Toke Over the Line” a “one-hit” wonder, but singer-songwriters Brewer & Shipley were mellow about that. During the early 1970s, Michael Brewer and Tom Shipley were based out of  Rolla, Mo., a town on a beautiful winding stretch of Route 66 about 100 miles west of St. Louis. Michael Brewer died on Dec. 17 at his home outside of Branson. Mo. He was 80 years old. He was born in Oklahoma City, OK. No cause of death has been announced.

Shipley told me the origins of “One Toke Over the Line.” In the fall of 1970 Brewer & Shipley were performing at a Kansas City, Mo. coffeehouse. Shipley walked backstage and started strumming his guitar. “I looked up and said, ‘Jezzus, Michael, I’m one toke over the line,” Shipley said. “We literally broke into song at that point, sort of simultaneously. We were just kidding.” After the backstage experiment, Brewer & Shipley played “One Toke” for a couple of friends. But the song didn’t take off until they tossed it as an encore in early 1971 when they appeared with folk singer Melanie at Ca
