Justin and Bec have compiled their lists of a half-dozen essential alternate studio takes apiece that every Elvis Presley fan, from total newbies to lifelong fans should hear!

For Song of the Week, Bec decides to spotlight Elvis's melancholy 1973 cover of Danny O'Keefe's folk-country hit song "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues" - but in the hosts' pre-show off-air chat, the duo realized that the song had a lot of overlap with the world of outlaw country, given that the bluesy "Charlie" would go on to be covered by the likes of Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and others.

So Justin takes the opportunity to learn Bec some of the history of the burgeoning "outlaw" scene in Nashville in the early 1970s that led to Jennings' iconic "Honky Tonk Heroes" album, largely comprised of material by songwriter Billy Joe Shaver, including "You Asked Me To," which Elvis also recorded in late 1973.
