I mentioned this single in my previous post as both singles were recorded in the Memphis sessions. The original release (RCA 47-9768) came out on 11. November 1969.
This single follows Elvis’ 60’s format; put a soft ballad on the A-side and a more upbeat track on the flip.
“Rubberneckin’” was included in Elvis’ 1969 film “Change of Habit”. It was recorded in the same session with an earlier hit song, “In the Ghetto”.
List price: Very Good+ is $4, Near Mint is $8.
