Estate Planning

Jimi Hendrix to Release a New Album

By Hull & Hull LLP

Jimi Hendrix's family and Sony Commercial Music Group have collaborated and the result is a new album featuring Hendrix music.  Mark this day in your calendar as this album should hit the stores on March 9, 2010.

The Hendrix legacy is closely protected by Experience Hendrix LLC, a family run company, currently being run by Janie Hendrix, Jimi's sister.  She has indicated that the Estate 'had enough material for "a decade's worth" of new releases, both music and video.'  

The currently slated release will be titled "Valleys of Neptune", and will include never before heard recordings.  The music will mostly be taken from a four month studio session in 1969, a year before Hendrix died, at the young age of 27.

With his estate in possession of so much fresh artistic material, it looks like we may be able to look forward to many more Hendrix albums.  Shockingly, Hendrix may release more in death than in life.

Until Tomorrow,

Nadia
