The album also yielded four top 5 hits, including two #1's, "Somewhere Tonight" and "Cry, Cry, Cry."

Their level of success was more than constant as Highway 101 continued to climb the charts with their sophomore release, Highway 101-2, which spawned four Top 10 singles, including the number one hit "(Do You Love Me)Just Say Yes". 1988 provided more than hit singles as the group was recognized by their peers, received the nod as "Vocal Group Of The Year" from both the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association.

1991 found Highway 101 with yet another configuration of members, but, true to their original musical visions, they went on to release the album, Bing, Bang, Boom on Warner Brothers. The title song from this album made it to #10 on the charts, followed by "The Blame" at #15, and "Baby I'm Missing You" at #24. This album also spawned yet one more top 40 hit, "Honky Tonk Baby".

The critically acclaimed album The New Frontier, produced by Curtis Stone and Cactus Moser was released in 1993 on Liberty Records. Highway 101 was again nominated for "Vocal Group of the Year" by the ACM & the CMA.

For 1996, Highway 101 have recorded a new batch of songs that continue to discover new roads in country music. The album Reunited, the first of these new releases, carries the distinction of being country music's first enhanced CD, an interactive format which combines the group's cutting edge music formula with the latest in computer technology. Technological advancement, however, means little when compared to the group's longtime premise. "We still share the sincerity about the music and never pretend to be anything but what we are... a band that loves to play."
