In 1952, the single "Wheel of Fortune" topped the American pop chart and climbed to number two on the Australian Kent Music Report pop survey. Between 1952 and 1953, Starr had top ten singles with "Comes A-Long A-Love", "Side by Side", "Half a Photograph", "Changing Partners" and "If You Love Me (Really Love Me)". These songs also reached top positions in Australia and the United Kingdom. Notably, "Comes A-Long A-Love" topped the UK Singles Chart in 1952. In 1955, Starr moved to RCA Victor and topped the American, Australian and British charts with the single "The Rock and Roll Waltz". The same year, Starr's debut studio album was released on Capitol titled The Kay Starr Style. Yet, RCA Victor issued four studio albums of her recordings including Blue Starr (1957) and Rockin' with Kay (1957). In 1957, the single "My Heart Reminds Me" reached the top ten of the Billboard pop chart.
Starr returned to Capitol Records in 1959 and the label soon released the studio album Movin'!, which reached number 16 on the UK Albums Chart. The following year, Capitol released three studio albums of her material: Losers, Weepers, Movin' on Broadway! and Kay Starr: Jazz Singer. The next year a country album was released titled Just Plain Country, which featured the charting single "Four Walls". Other charting singles of this period included "Foolin' Around" and a solo version of "I'll Never Be Free". In 1966, Starr made the Billboard adult contemporary chart for the first time "Tears and Heartaches". A corresponding album appeared on Capitol in 1966. Starr continued recording for various labels through the 1980s. This included a collaboration with Count Basie and a live album in the 1980s.
