Brilliant. This is what copyright lawyers do for us. Next time you meet one, spit on them.

I agree.
Nothing like watching a news report on a soccer/ rugby /tennis match that happened yesterday and just seeing photos becuase some Wall St. schmuck isn't satisfied with the millions he already got from overpriced tickets and advertising rights.
Don't see much of the loot going to Jimi's family.

Yep...... another "copy idiot" jumping onto someones popularity............... clones and copies are not welcome. They only use their lack of talent to backdoor and try and make $$$$$ from talented people.
The world is full of photo copy artists...... But none better than the original. Hey Joe!
Let the flack begin.

I'm just hoping that other lawyers will be waiting for the latest lawyers: as anybody knows, no music is truly original, every musician is influenced by others, including contemporaries and those who went before them. So perhaps the most recent lawyers should soon be getting letters from the penultimate ones demanding royalties? Or, god forbid, are the parameters of enrichment determined by the rich? Impossible!

What are you blaming the lawyers for here? As a rule, I hate lawyers as much as any sentient being, but here it is the family not allowing the use of the master recordings that is at issue. That isn't a copyright issue. They own the recordings and control who can use them. The copyright issue is that anyone recording the songs would have to pay a mechanical rate to use them, but anyone can record them as long as they do that.

I watched a movie about the life of Hendrix on one of the PPCTV digital movie channels 2 weeks ago. It seemed relatively recent. They recreated a lot of his music, though none of it was the original recordings.
This seems to negate the whole story. They have made a movie about Hendrix and they were allowed access to his music.

I went to see the Hendrix exhibition at the Seattle Center few years ago, clearly the family is making a lot of dough on their long gone brother.. apart from featuring body parts of the man, they would pretty much have all relics of his short lived carrier featured on display.. mixing desks, guitars, original handwritten poetry, et.al
Supposedly the best guitarist in the world.. so why everyone else is playing their guitars opposite his left handed ways, I still can't comprehend.. at least learn to change sides.. like an Englishman would have to do driving in cambo

GGE, are you referring to the BBC film called 'The Uncut Story '? Good doc, a little less talking and more music would have made it great imho.

I saw a great Hendrix doco years ago, can't remember the name, which featured an interview with Jimi's drug dealer who uttered the line later made famous by Douglas Adams when he put the words into the mouth of Zaphod Beeblebrox's psychiatrist.
Dude said "Y'know, Jimi was just this guy'.

The movie I am referring to was an actual movie, not a doco. Used actors and no narration. Don't know the name because I missed the start. Quite well done and a good performance by the unknown-to me-actor who played Hendrix.
