Fatboy Slim is remixing the Rolling Stones' 1968 epic "Sympathy for the Devil." The British DJ reportedly got the official go ahead from authors Mick Jagger and Keith Richards because the two liked his earlier remix of the Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction."
The Neptunes and Full Phat are also working on remixes of "Sympathy," which will be grouped with Fatboy Slim's and released in Europe before the U.S.
The Stones open another leg of their Forty Licks tour in Sweden Friday, and it runs through mid-September, with a break for the July 30th Concert for Toronto.
