Moody Blue
Moody Blue is the twenty-fourth and final studio album by American singer and musician Elvis Presley, released on July 19, 1977, by RCA Records, about four weeks before his death. The album was a mixture of live and studio work and included the four tracks from Presley's final studio recording sessions in October 1976 and two tracks left over from the previous Graceland session in February 1976. "Moody Blue" was a previously published hit song recorded at the earlier Graceland session and held over for this album. Also recorded at the February session was "She Thinks I Still Care". "Way Down" was released as a single on June 6, 1977, and peaked at #31 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending August 6, then held that position for a second week on August 13, 1977, before falling out of the Top 40 on the chart for the week ending August 20, 1977. Following Presley's death, the song reentered the Top 40 and reached #18 on the chart for the week ending September 24, 1977, held that same position one week later, and then fell back down the charts again. The album was certified Gold and Platinum on September 12, 1977, and 2× Platinum on March 27, 1992, by the RIAA.
