Judge: Sound Engineer Can't Publish Unreleased Prince Tracks

source

May 23, 2017


A sound engineer who worked with Prince is barred from publishing or disseminating any unreleased recordings that compromise the late superstar's work.

George Ian Boxill worked with Prince on five tracks in 2006 and made at least one recording - the Deliverance EP - available online last month. Prince's estate and Paisley Park Enterprises sued to block it.

On Monday (May 22), U.S. District Judge Wilhelmina Wright issued a preliminary injunction saying Boxill and independent label RMA can't publish unreleased recordings until the dispute is resolved. They are also barred from using Prince's trademark to sell or promote "Deliverance."

The lawsuit says Boxill signed a confidentiality agreement that the recordings would remain Prince's property. Prince sings and plays guitar and keyboard on the tracks.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Wow, such pettiness from the "pretties" lol

Maybe Latin was giving TP the day off from policing EVERY SINGLE thread.

I'm sure TP needs a break sometimes, especially when he is just as guilty of committing the same "crime" as he is accusing Latin of on this thread, which has happened more than once here recently.
