Congratulations to David, who sprinted to victory earlier today in Elvis Trivialities #11.
And the answer is…
Almost In Love is the Elvis album from his lifetime that featured two mistakenly-released cuts.
As first released in October 1970, Almost In Love included “escapes” of two alternate versions released by mistake: Take 17 of “Stay Away, Joe” and Take 10 of “A Little Less Conversation.” A 1973 reissue of the album corrected one of the errors by replacing the “Stay Away, Joe” alternate with “Stay Away” (“Greensleeves”).
Thanks to Thomas for providing a challenging question. First-time winner David not only gets Elvis bragging rights, but also becomes a member of The Mystery Train’s Night Riders. A special honorable mention goes to John this time for giving the correct answer while David’s earlier comment was still being held in the moderation queue.
