Who really owns Jimi Hendrix's albums? UK court approves lawsuit against Sony Music by bandmates' estates

By Economic Times - 10 months ago
London's High Court permits a legal challenge by the estates of Jimi Hendrix's bandmates, Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, against Sony. The lawsuit revolves around ownership rights to iconic 1960s albums, including "Are You Experienced" and "Electric Ladyland." Redding and Mitchell's descendants, represented by Noel Redding Estate Ltd and Mitch Mitchell Estate Ltd, seek a share of sound recording copyrights. Despite Sony's argument, the court's decision for a full trial in 2025 marks a crucial chapter in determining the collaborative contributions to The Jimi Hendrix Experience's timeless music.
