by Steve HueyOne of the most popular country bands of the late 80s, Highway 101 boasted an influential country-rock sound that helped pave the way for the blockbuster superstars of the 90s. The group was fronted by singer/guitarist Paulette Carlson, a Minnesota native, and assembled by manager Chuck Morris in Los Angeles in 1986. Morris pulled together Jack Daniels (guitar), Curtis Stone (bass, guitar, mandolin), and drummer Cactus Moser, all of whom were seasoned session pros; Daniels and Stone had also worked together as the Lizards. Highway 101 signed with Warner Bros. and issued its self-titled debut in 1987. It was an immediate success, as the first two singles — The Bed You Made for Me and Whiskey, if You Were a Woman — shot into the country Top Five. The next two, Somewhere Tonight and Cry, Cry, Cry, both went to number one, and seemingly overnight, the group members had become stars. Their 1988 follow-up, Highway 101, Vol. 2, spawned another chart-topper in (Do You Love Me) Just Say Yes, and three more Top Tens in All the Reasons Why, Setting Me Up, and Honky Tonk Heart. Following 1989s Paint the Town, which contained one further chart-topper in Whos Lonely Now, Carlson left the band for a solo career in 1990. She was replaced by Nikki Nelson, who debuted on 1991s Bing Bang Boom; however, despite some decent-sized hits, the new version of Highway 101 wasnt quite as commercially successful, and the band soon parted ways with Warner. They signed with Liberty for 1993s The New Frontier, but the album flopped, and Daniels subsequently left the group. He and Carlson temporarily returned to the fold for 1996s Reunited, released on the smaller Intersound label. Curtis Stone and Cactus Moser later formed a new version of Highway 101 with vocalist Chrislynn Lee and guitarist Charlie White, and recorded Big Sky for FreeFalls in 2000. White left in 2002 and was replaced by Justin Weaver.
