Her second studio album Wilma Burgess Sings Misty Blue (1966) would also peak in the top ten of the country albums chart. Burgess had her final top-twenty hit in 1967 with "Tear Time", but continued releasing albums with Decca Records until 1969. A close of friend of Jim Reeves's wife, Burgess would sign a recording contract with Reeves's Shannon label in the early 1970s. Her duet with Buddy Logan entitled "Wake Me Into Love" (1974) would reach the top twenty of the Billboard country chart. In 1977, she released two singles with RCA Records.
