 2002年リリースした リミックス・シングル 「ア・リトル・レス・カンヴァセーション / ELV1S VS JXL (ジャンキーXL)」は 各国でNo.1を獲得し、 英では ビートルズの1位記録を抜き、 日本でも洋楽シングルチャートNo.1、 ラジオ・オン・エアNo.1等 全世界で大ブレイクする結果となった。
 そして2003年も 注目のリミックス・シングルが登場。 今回はエルヴィスの1969年の ファン以外ではあまりなじみのない 「ラバーネッキン」という楽曲を "今、世界で最もレコードを売るDJ" の異名を取る ポール・オークンフォールドが リミックス。 昨年同様 またしても エルヴィスの隠れた名曲がクールに蘇った。

<ラバーネッキン>
 1968年伝説のTV特番、 通称「68カムバック・スペシャル」で 見事に復活を遂げたエルヴィスが 再び本格的な音楽活動を再開したのが 故郷メンフィスの アメリカン・サウンド・スタジオでの1969年の レコーディング・セッションだった。 この中から 「サスピシャス・マインド」 「イン・ザ・ゲットー」等の No.1ソングが生まれた。 「ラバーネッキン」は この時の録音でシングル 「ドント・クライ・ダディ」の B面としてリリース。 また 1969年主演映画 「チェンジ・オブ・ハビット」 (日本未公開)の 挿入歌にもなった。

 2002年 全世界的なシングル・ヒットとなった 「ア・リトル・レス・カンヴァセイション」と ベスト盤 「ELV1S 30 No.1 ヒッツ」の 大成功により さらなるファンが広まり、 その後も 大きな話題となったミュージカル 「エルヴィス・ストーリー」の上陸、 娘のリサ・マリーのデビューと来日、 エルヴィスのヒット曲が 7曲使用された映画 「リロ&スティッチ」、 たびたび放送されるTV特番等、 エルヴィスに関する話題は 絶えることを知らない。
 今年の命日には BMGからも オール未発表音源の4枚組CD 「クローズ・アップ」がリリースされ、 引き続き 昨年の「ELV1S 30 No.1 ヒッツ」に続く 第二ベスト「エルヴィス・オンリー・ワン」を 10/8リリース。 収録内容は「ELV1S 30 No.1 ヒッツ」にもれたNo.1曲と エルヴィスのキャリアの中の 重要な代表曲で構成される。
 No.1以外の曲でも エルヴィスには 多くの有名曲があり、 ベスト盤を構成するには十二分な内容である。 さらに 昨年の 「ア・リトル・レス・カンヴァセイション」のような Rimixにより エルヴィスの楽曲を蘇らせ ヒット・シングルをリリース。 その曲も 「エルヴィス・オンリー・ワン」に ボーナス・トラックとして収録。
 今回のリミックスを手がけるのは、 "今、世界で最もレコードを売るDJ" の異名を取るポール・オークンフォールド。 最近では 「マトリックス・リローデッド」のサントラにも参加。 来日も果たし話題をまいている。 曲は69年の「ラバーネッキン」というシングル。 「ドント・クライ・ダディ」のB面ソングで、 その当時の主演映画 「チェンジ・オブ・ハビット」 (日本未公開)の挿入歌になったもので、 これもまたあまり多くの人に知られていない曲だ。

BMG 2003 PLANS
SPECIAL NOTE: The information below was obtained from a very informed source at BMG U.S. I must stress that nothing written below has definitely been agreed upon and discussions are still taking place. As most of you know, I do not like to print anything unless I feel that my source and the information is pretty reliable. This does not mean that ALL of the releases below will come out. It may also be that some of the 68 and ALOHA material will appear on the box set and the individual CD's will be cancelled. There are rumors that there may be another remix CD single like LLC but, if so, that may only happen overseas as the US has no plans to do this!!

"CLOSE UP" (4-CD Box Set) Release date; July 1

"ELV1S: 2ND TO NONE" Release date; September 9th
BMG will follow up the 30 # 1 HITS CD with another compilation of songs featuring the newly remastered "new sound".No track listing is available right now but it's assumed (as we have reported for months!) that this will have songs that were in the Top 10 worldwide!

"ELVIS CHRISTMAS PEACE" (2-CD set) Release date; September 23rd
As you can tell from the title, this will be a 2 CD set with Xmas and gospel songs. There will probably be nothing unreleased on this.

"THE '68 COMEBACK - 35th ANNIVERSARY ISSUE" Release date; November
Because there will be a new 68 TV SPECIAL DVD out this year, BMG may market this audio CD along with the DVD but it's too early to tell right now.

"ALOHA FROM ELVIS - 30 YEARS LATER!" Release date; ????
As with the 68 DVD reissue due this year, BMG might release a remastered ALOHA CD to go along with it but plans are still up in the air for this

FTD EXTRA RELEASES: As a direct consequence of BMG's current streamlining of the world wide Elvis catalogue, a fair portion of Elvis' original music becomes unavailable. It's been agreed that FOLLOW THAT DREAM will re-release these masters in order that they will always be available to "REAL FANS". To make this attractive we are re-releasing original albums along the following lines:

1) 7" format cover (like a single or EP)
2) Original back and front cover
3) 3 panel Gatefold sleeve
4) 8 page booklet with photos and memorabilia
5) Original album with original album EQ
6) Additionally all previously released outtakes (if space permits)
7) Additionally previously unreleased outtakes (when available and space permits)

The first three of these release will be available with the release of STUDIO B. There is no minimum order on these (except multiples of 5) as long as your order is not less than 100 pieces in total (of any catalogue or new items). The price will be the same in spite of the extravagant packaging, and we are very keen to get feedback from you on fan-reaction, as we will try and respond with more releases based on your recommendations.

The first 3 titles are: "IT HAPPENED AT THE WORLD'S FAIR", "FUN IN ACAPULCO" & "GIRL HAPPY"
