Separate Ways
Released: Dec. 1, 1972
The third budget album in six months, combining a hit single with – whatever. A good collection of mostly melancholy songs (including “Old Shep,” the story of a boy and his dog, with which Elvis won fifth prize at the age of ten at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair in Tupelo) from every era. It sold substantially less than its predecessors, but it still sold 300,000.
