PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE NOW
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — For 35 years, country music icon Randy Travis has brought the world chart-topping, genre-defining hits. Throughout his storied career, a select amount of songs never found a place on his critically-acclaimed catalog of albums. Now, along with the pre-order for his remastered album Storms of Life (35th Anniversary Deluxe Edition), Warner Music Nashville is releasing “Ain’t No Use” from The Vault. Written by Travis, “Ain’t No Use” brings back the Country Music Hall of Famer’s beautiful baritone on a never-before-heard toe tappin,’ boot scootin’ smash. Pre-order the album and listen to the song here.
“Ain’t No Use” has strong guitar, piano and fiddle riffs that will transport listeners right back to 1986. It is one of three unreleased songs from the vault to accompany all ten remastered original tracks from Travis’ debut album Storms Of Life – the first Country record ever to go multi-platinum. At 27 years old, he lit the spark that ignited the neotraditional generation of artists including Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Clint Black and many more.
In 2017 Garth Brooks told Rolling Stone, “Think about it: when is there ever, in any format, an artist that has come on the scene that has turned a format 180 degrees from where it’s heading, back and made it bigger than it ever was? That’s impossible. I’ve only known it to happen once, ever and Travis would be the name I’d stick on it.”
