Posted September 11, 200816 yr Hiya Peeps, The Spankox remix hit the shops on Monday in the UK! Not sure what to make of it? It DOES sound really good but I'm not sure what the occasion was...or maybe I'm missing something! The Thursday chart update has it sitting Top 90!?! :o And it's even the main release in my local Zavvi store!! :unsure: Don't think this will go down as the best idea for a re-mix, but who cares...We love it!!
September 11, 200816 yr Hi Ian - good to see you I'm looking forward to getting this release. Apparently though, there has been a problem in that some of the stores haven't received their copies and some stores have been telling customers that they're not expecting it until September 22nd, according to some Elvis websites. Brian Quinn has contacted Sony BMG(UK) today and informed them of the problem with supply at some HMV stores. They state that they will immediately look into it. I hope they get onto it straightaway as it may not enter the charts as high as it would if all the stores had received their copies :( There isn't universal approval for the remix amongst some fans as they don't like to see any of the 'Sun' tracks remixed. Of course I prefer the original, but I do quite like this remix and if it introduces Elvis to those who wouldn't normally give him a listen, then that's fantastic! :dance:
September 12, 200816 yr Author Hiya Carole, I wasn't aware of these problem. Hopefully it'll get sorted soon. :unsure: It's great to have another Elvis release though. :yahoo:

October 3, 200816 yr Mike Stoller On Spankox Jailhouse Rock Remix While in Memphis during Elvis week 2008 the Italian DJ Spankox met with Mike Stoller, the composer of “Jailhouse Rock” and many other Elvis Presley hits. His reaction on the remix of ghis classic "Jailhouse Rock" was: “It’s a fantastic album; I wonder how Spankox managed to do this incredible job. Thankyou to Spankox for the great ”Re:Version” of the song that I wrote with Jerry Leiber in 1955, “Jailhouse Rock”: I love it!”. AE7a3qzEf-s Source :ElvisNews
