Elvis is the eighteenth studio album by American singer and musician Elvis Presley, released on July 16, 1973.[5] It sold over 1 million copies worldwide. To differentiate it from his eponymous 1956 release, it is sometimes called The "Fool" Album, after its first track which appears just below Elvis' name on the front cover. In the US, "Fool" was issued as the B-side of "Steamroller Blues" from the Aloha from Hawaii Via Satellite album. In the UK the sides were flipped and "Fool" was issued as the A-side. It reached No. 15.
