The Judds debuted in 1983 with "Had a Dream (For the Heart)". Starting with its followup "Mama He's Crazy", the duo charted a total of 14 number ones on the Hot Country Songs charts, with six additional songs reaching the top 10, between 1984 and 1991. In this timespan, The Judds also recorded six studio albums.

One of these songs, "Stuck in Love", charted in 2000. They have sold over 20 million records according to RIAA.
