HENDRIX Heirs File Second Lawsuit Against PURPLE HAZE RECORDS
- Sep. 13, 2005
|
|
Margo Whitmire of Billboard.com is reporting that Seattle-based Experience Hendrix filed a second suit yesterday (Sept. 12) against Purple Haze Records to stop the marketing and sales of all unauthorized Jimi Hendrix recordings through the U.K. indie label. In February, the High Court of Justice in London held Purple Haze and proprietor Lawrence Miller liable for infringing the rights of Experience Hendrix in recordings of the Jimi Hendrix Experience's 1969 Konserthuset performance in Stockholm. Unlike U.S. courts that recently held unconstitutional the federal anti-bootlegging laws — which protect performers' rights in live concert performances — the British court interpreted a 1989 law to protect Hendrix's rights in the case.

Besides Jimi isn't dead. He is living with Janis, 2Pac, and Biggie. Elvis is thier neighbor. It is the 'sur-dead' life.

I hear people complaining about Limp Bizkit, Korn and Tommy Lee news should not be at Blabbermouth.net, but what about Hendrix.. this is not metal, it's not even hard rock.

Man, you must be very young or very ignorant. Most importantly, you must NOT be a guitar player let alone musician.

I don't care how great you think the cookie cutter Pantera band was or how much you idolized Dime, he doesn't belong in front front of Hendrix. And for christ sakes, Eddie van halen?
I am not for ranking guitarists, but these are some of the best (technicality or speed doesn't earn them a top spot necessarily) IMO:
Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Tony Iommi, B.B. King, David Gilmour, Keith Richards, Robert Fripp, Pete Townshend.
Sorry, but Dime couln't hold a candle to any of those dudes.

I'm conflicted by your post. I agree yet I strongly disagree. I get the sense that you are minimizing/marginalizing Eddie Van Halen and his impact on rock music...rock guitar in particular. If you are, then, you, sir, just might be the idiot.

Eddie Van Halen is no doubt a skilled guitarist, its just a shame the music he plays has zero substance.

Everyone knows that if you don't like Jimi Hendrix, you are very young or very ignorant... yeah, right.
No, I'm not a guitar player... even if I was, I would not listen to that awful noise coming from hendrix guitar.
