yes its true, first track is "crying in the chapel" with The Wailers backing and on the flip theres a dubmix of "in the ghetto" on a ruff riddim backed by Soul Syndicate if i remember correctly. im quite fond of the "in the ghetto" track actually.

There is remix 7" plus lp
Voice's mix over sStudio One rydims
Here the info

STUDIO ONE BLVD : THE REMIXS
Various Artists (2005)

The Remix Collective S1B 1

Can't Satisfy Her (I Wayne); Love Of My Life (Gregory Isaacs & Dennis Brown); Love Me (Sam Cooke); Whats Up ( De De Hamilton); In The Ghetto (Elvis Presley) // Doctors Orders (Berris Hammond); Murderer (Capleton); Its Not Right (Whitney Houston); Ready Or Not (The Refugees); I'm Lost (Sam Cooke); unititled (uncredited)


Hmm... an intriguing album of rather dubious origin - being a compilation of 11 classic Studio One rhythm tracks overdubbed with pre-recorded vocals from an illustrious cast of both the living and the dearly departed. I must admit that I was sceptical at first, but this set is beginning to grow on me. The two Sam Cooke tracks sound magnificent, of course, and I could happily listen to more Gregory Isaacs vocals over Studio One rhythms. Pity that Elvis doesn't quite cut the mustard..

Thanks Rob Downbeat for the info.

No, its a couple of remixes from 2004. It came out in two different pressings, one with a picture cover and one later with a white label.
