Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/spotipy-dev/spotipy/issues/575

Describe the bug
When I try to run the album_tracks I get the error:
404 non existing id

Your code
This paste has my authorization code and the code that is giving an error.

Expected behavior
The program should run album_tracks and pass the dictionary it returns into a function called construct_uris. construct_uris then creates a list of track uris. Finally, the program should start playback of those songs.

Output
HTTP Error for GET to https://api.spotify.com/v1/albums/2widuo17g5cec66ibzveru/tracks/ returned 404 due to non existing id

http status: 404, code:-1 - https://api.spotify.com/v1/albums/2widuo17g5cec66ibzveru/tracks/?limit=50&offset=0&market=US:
non existing id, reason: None

Environment:

OS: Raspbian
Python version: 3.7.3
spotipy version: 2.15.0

Additional context
I ran my code on a windows 10 laptop and the code worked fine. I transferred it to a raspberry pi and it no longer works. This is very frustrating because minutes ago it worked fine!

The problematic code was working today on my windows 10 laptop but as of now I receive the same error and it will not work. Strange.

OH MY GOSH. :(

I have been giving Spotify a lowercase 'r' instead of an uppercase 'R' when I have been giving queries for album uris.

Don't change the case of the uris guys and gals, it messes everything up.
