ST11261
''ST11261'' (1974) was the sixth album released by Brewer & Shipley. The album's title refers to its Capitol Records catalog number, a device previously used by Peter, Paul & Mary (''Album 1700'', 1967), and which would later be used for albums released by Dave Davies (''AFL1-3603'', 1980) and Yes (''90125'', 1983). In the 2021 documentary on Brewer & Shipley ''One Toke Over the Line ... and Still Smokin','' Mike Brewer explains that the decision to name the album after its catalog number followed an encounter with a record executive who referred to the artists' music as "product." Stephen Stills's band Manassas recorded Brewer's song "Bound to Fall" for their 1972 debut album, two years in advance of its appearance on ''ST11261''.

Brewer & Shipley Albums
Brewing is the production of beer by steeping a starch source (commonly cereal grains, the most popular of which is barley) in water and fermenting the resulting sweet liquid with yeast. It may be done in a brewery by a commercial brewer, at home by a homebrewer, or communally. Brewing has taken place since around the 6th millennium BC, and archaeological evidence suggests that emerging civilizations, including ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, brewed beer. Since the nineteenth century the brewing industry has been part of most western economies. The basic ingredients of beer are water and a fermentable starch source such as malted barley. Most beer is fermented with a brewer's yeast and flavoured with hops. Less widely used starch sources include millet, sorghum and cassava. Secondary sources (adjuncts), such as maize (corn), rice, or sugar, may also be used, sometimes to reduce cost, or to add a feature, such as adding wheat to aid in retaining the foamy head of the beer. ...
