The label also issued four singles between 1962 and 1965, including "I Want You to Be the First One to Know" (1962) and "Don't Worry 'bout Me" (1963). It was not until 1977 that Sloane's next studio album was released titled Sophisticated Lady. Three more studio collections followed in the decade: Spring Is Here (1977), Cottontail (1978) and Carol Sings (1979). Her first live album was also released during the decade, which was a collaboration with Ben Webster titled Carol & Ben (1977).

In 1982, Baybridge Records issued two live albums (Subway Tokens and Carol Sloane Live with Joe Pluma) and one studio collection (As Time Goes By). In 1984, the Eastworld label issued a collaborative studio collection between Ernestine Anderson, Chris Connor and Sloane titled Three Pearls. At the end of the decade came two studio albums by CBS and Sony: But Not for Me and Early Hours. The Contemporary label released 1989's Love You Madly and 1990's The Real Thing. In the 1990s, Concord Jazz issued five studio albums of Sloane's music, beginning with 1992's Heart's Desire. Other Concord albums included Sweet & Slow (1993), The Songs Carmen Sang (1995) and The Songs Ella & Louis Sang (a collaboration with Clark Terry in 1997).

In 2001, Concord issued Sloane's compilation Ballad Essentials. The HighNote label then issued two studio album by Sloane: I Never Went Away (2001) and Whisper Sweet (2003). In 2007, she collaborated with Ken Peplowski and Brad Hatfield on the studio collection Dearest Duke on Arbors Records. The same label then issued her final studio collection, We'll Meet Again (2010). Sloane's final live album was released in 2022 by Club44 Records titled Live at Birdland.
