Two CD set containing three original albums from Highway 101 plus two bonus tracks. In the early 1980s, country band Alabama created fresh excitement within country music, opening up the doorway for further male outfits like Exile, Sawyer Brown, Little Texas and The Kentucky Headhunters. Then, enter Highway 101, an outfit that broke the group scene's male dominance with a female vocalist as it's central figure while, at the same time creating a distinctive contemporary sound that blended the country music of Nashville and the West Coast with a tinkling of pop. Lead singer Paulette Carlson was perfect to front this band. Carlson's husky vocals were well complemented by the musicians and her contributions as a writer ensured the band's success. Their second single release 'The Bed You Saved For Me', written by Carlson, saw the start of a successful seven year run. Such success ensured much critical acclaim with Highway 101 being named Vocal Group of the Year by both the Country Music Association and The Academy of Country Music for two consecutive years, 1988 and 1989. This package contains 12 chart hits, 4 #1s and 6 Top 10s.
