Fuego Entertainment has issued the following press release:

"On January 15, 2008, Experience Hendrix LLC [the family-run company founded in 1995 by James Allen (Al) Hendrix, father and sole heir of Jimi Hendrix] issued a press release claiming Fuego Entertainment and its majority-owned Echo-Fuego Music Group, LLC had acquired a 'collection of inferior quality bootleg recordings' of over 200 live performance tracks of legendary musician and performer Jimi Hendrix. Fuego Entertainment and Echo-Fuego Music Group dismiss these allegations.

"Prior to the formation of the joint venture Echo-Fuego, Echo-Vista Music Group, LLC acquired the rights to the over 200 Jimi Hendrix live performance music tracks. Experience Hendrix has known for some time that Echo-Vista Music Group had acquired the legal rights to market, promote, sale and distribute these wonderful and historic recording by Jimi Hendrix in North America. Fuego Entertainment, Inc. and Echo-Fuego Music Group have the historical and legal documentation proving it has the rights to substantiate our claim.
