Hunter had another hit single, "Ninety-Nine Ways", which peaked at No.&nbsp;11 in the United States and No.&nbsp;5 in the United Kingdom. His success prompted [[Jack L. Warner]] to enforce the actor's contract with the [[Warner Bros.]] studio by banning [[Dot Records]], the label for which Hunter had recorded the single (and which was owned by rival [[Paramount Pictures]]), from releasing a follow-up album he had recorded for them. He established [[Warner Bros. Records]] specifically for Hunter.{{citation needed|date=October 2020}}
