UK 18 #1 Singles Box
All of Elvis' 18 UK #1 singles will be re-released over 17 consecutive weeks beginning on January 3rd '05 and ending on April 25th '05.
Each classic single will be released in a Limited Edition numbered CD and 10"
format, which will be beautifully packaged using original artwork.
Never
before has an artists contribution to popular music been celebrated in such a
groundbreaking way but as we know... there has never been an artist like Elvis
Presley. 'All Shook Up' was Elvis' first UK #1 single and will be the first
re-release on 3rd January 2005. Both CD and 10" of 'All Shook Up' will be
launched in a beautifully designed, foil embossed CD and 10" box which can then
be used to house the other 17 UK # 1's. Due to UK chart regulations on packaging
for singles, the 'All Shook Up' release/Box set will not be eligible for
inclusion in the UK singles chart, therefore we will also be re-releasing Elvis'
second UK #1 single 'Jailhouse Rock' on the same day.

Each single released in this momentous campaign will be packaged as following:
CD Single
-- Each CD will be released in 'mini-vinyl' replica card sleeves with an outer and inner bag. The outer bag features the original U.S. picture artwork and the inner bag replicates a generic UK RCAingle sleeve from the time of the original release.
10" Vinyl
-- Each 10" vinyl release will be packaged in the original RCA generic bag.
Each CD single will be pressed on black plastic with grooves to mimic the original 45. Peacock Design has painstakingly taken the artwork from original sources, then cleaned them up for these re-issues. As well as the original A side, there will be the B-side recording, plus a third track which will be either an alternate take or a linked track.
The sales bar-code will be a peel-off so that once removed it will reveal an exact replica to the original release. Each CD will be packaged in a repro of the original British bag, which in turn will slip inside a reproduction of the original American picture sleeve. This format will be extended to the 10" vinyl versions.
The first single will be Jailhouse Rock/Treat Me Nice which will qualify for a chart position and will be released on 3rd January. At the same time All Shook Up will be released also on both formats, but as a chart-ineligible package, incorporating the collector box big enough to store the full collection of singles. The boxes will come in CD and 10" Vinyl sizes.

A project of this magnitude, celebrating a hugely important Anniversary in the Elvis calendar, will generate huge media interest. Noble PR Ltd., responsible for the phenomenal PR Campaign which surrounded The Top 3 release of 'That's All Right' in June 2004, will be managing this project throughout its four month run. The PR Campaign will be backed with press ads in specialist music publications and national newspapers - details TBC.

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
