Crittenden quit the group in October 1995 to focus more on a recording studio and publishing company which he owned at the time, and he was quickly replaced by Billy Simon, who made his debut at a concert in Pine Bluff, Arkansas that month. Due to a restructuring of Polydor Nashville, 4 Runner was transferred to A&M Records Nashville for what would have been its second album, "One for the Ages". The lead single was "That Was Him (This Is Now)", written by Keith Urban and Vernon Rust. Although this song entered the country charts, the album itself was not released due to the closure of Polydor/A&M's Nashville unit. 4 Runner soon disbanded. During the band's hiatus, Chapman sang backing vocals on Chad Brock's 1998 self-titled debut album.
