Originally a gospel quartet, The Oak Ridge Boys switched their focus to secular country music in the mid-1970s, releasing a string of hit albums and singles that lasted into the early 1990s.

Their discography comprises thirty-one studio albums and fifty-six singles.

Their highest-selling album is 1981's Fancy Free, which is certified double-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Two of these songs, "Elvira" and "Bobbie Sue", were also Top 40 pop and Adult Contemporary hits, and the former is certified platinum as a single.

Four additional singles ("Sail Away", "Dream On", "Heart of Mine", and "Fancy Free") also entered the AC charts, while "So Fine" and "American Made" both made the 70s on the pop charts.
