A Modern Spiritual



Brewer and Shipley took their song "One Toke Over the Line" to #10 in 1971. Trying to appeal to a younger generation, TV host and bandleader Lawrence Welk featured it on his show shortly afterward, apparently having no clue what the song was about. The story behind this unique TV clip, courtesy of Tom Shipley, is told here. (via Metafilter)
