| (EZ-Tracks) - The company that owns the rights to Jimi Hendrix’s likeness and music is claiming that the alleged sex tap of Hendrix being sold on the Internet is a fake, according to a Reuters report. “We strongly dispute the claimed authenticity of the tape," Experience Hendrix was quoted as saying in the report. “We view the release as nothing more than a callous attempt to trade on the image and reputation of a deceased artist who is unable to defend himself against such an outrageous and baseless assertion," the Seattle-based company was quoted as saying. This past week Los Angeles-based adult video company Vivid Entertainment released a 45-minute DVD that includes 11 minutes of roughly 40-year-old film footage showing a man who resembles Hendrix romping around with two unidentified brunettes in a dimly lit bedroom. Vivid claimed that they had authenticated the video with experts, including a woman who knew the guitarist. They said they got the tape from an individual who purchased it from a collector who found it. Vivid’s president said he was comfortable the tape was real. | ||||||||||||
