Minnie Pearl released a number of single records for RCA Victor during the 1950s including a few duets with Grandpa Jones. During this period she also made guest appearances on records by Chet Atkins and Ernest Tubb. In the 1960s she moved to Starday Records. At age 54 she recorded a top ten hit for Starday, "Giddyup Go - Answer," a response to Red Sovine's classic "Giddyup Go". She later recorded with Sovine and Buddy Starcher in other single releases.

Pearl was back on RCA in 1974 when she and Roy Clark released a parody record of Loretta Lynn and Conway Twitty's hit "As Soon As I Hang Up The Phone" which received airplay but did not chart. In 1977, she appeared with a number of other Opry members on Dolly Parton's New Harvest - First Gathering album, singing on the song "Applejack". In 1986 she was a featured guest vocalist, along with Jerry Clower, on the Ray Stevens comedy single entitled "Southern Air". It charted in the Top-70 of Billboard
