No Fences was released on August 27, 1990, and is American country music artist Garth Brooks' second album. It reached #1 on the Billboard country music charts and #3 on Billboard's pop chart, and is Brooks' best-selling album to date, with global sales of over 20 million copies (approximately 16 million in the U.S. through 2006.)
Some of Brooks most famous songs appear on No Fences, including: "The Thunder Rolls" (CMA's 1991 Video of the Year), "Friends in Low Places" (Academy of Country Music's 1990 Single of the Year), "Unanswered Prayers" and "Two of a Kind, Workin' on a Full House". A cover version of The Fleetwoods' "Mr. Blue" appears on the album. The album itself was named Album of the Year by the ACM in 1990. It reached Number 1 on the British country music charts (earning Brooks his first gold album in that country) and remained charted for over five years.
