Page "1991 in country music" Paragraph 7

* Eight acts have their first Billboard No. 1 songs, including Mark Chesnutt, Mike Reid, Alan Jackson, Doug Stone, Diamond Rio, Trisha Yearwood, Brooks & Dunn and Lionel Cartwright.

Three of those-Diamond Rio, Yearwood and Brooks & Dunn-turn the trick with their first national release ; Reid's first solo release also hit the top of the chart, but he had hit the Top 5 as part of a duet with Ronnie Milsap ( 1988's " Old Folks ") three years earlier.
