Reading this months edition of "Guitarist" I notice a letter from a reader asking for transcription of a Hendrix song "Little Wing". In reply the magazine points out that Jimi Hendrix estate has a blanket ban on any of his compositions being reproduced in magazines and that the only Hendrix tracks you'll see covered in this way are non-Hendrix compositions such as "All along the watchtower". Whilst this news is not exactly going to spoil my weekend I am curious to know what the estate trustees are protecting by banning transcriptions. Would Jimi have approved?
