Jimi Hendrix’s family is threatening to take legal action after some of the late rock star’s most famous songs for £7.9m ($15m ).
The family’s company say it has proof that it owns the rights to songs like 'Purple Haze' and 'Voodoo Child'.
The tracks were auctioned earlier this week as part of the estate of Hendrix’s manager, Michael Jeffery, who died in 1973.
A spokesman for the Seattle-based Experience Hendrix company said: "Whoever bought this bought themselves the right to be a litigant.
"It will be contested instantly," added Bob Merlis.
The company claimed to own the rights to all of Hendrix’s music and recordings.
