Those bastards removed from YouTube the video I uploaded of Jimi Hendrix backstage with The Rolling Stones!! That video has never ever been released and after all is an outtake from the Maysles brothers.
Footage is NOT property of ABKCO
Background music is NOT property of ABKCO
There are 20 seconds of the video showing ART INSPIRED on the cover owned by ABKCO and is used as a wallpaper on the back of some texts. I am not using the cover owned by ABKCO but art inspired on the cover and it is shown as a background for some text promoting the album as the greatest live album ever but not using a single second of the music. I made that art and is not the cover as well and it was used in good will.
They previously removed a video of Nicky Hopkins during the Beggars Banquet Sessions; in that case I agree that was taken from the Laser Disc of the movie SFTD but even with credits to the copyright owner and giving information about the source and where to buy it the suckers removed it.
I'm pissed to the extreme as YouTube also removed my account based on their rules.
Of course I'm going to complain as the copyright of the video I uploaded was not by the ABKCO suckers but The Criterion Collection and The Rolling Stones, and the music is by Jimi Hendrix and he was not a victim of the low-life-in-the-high-life of Allen Klein. AN to use art inspired in other's art giving CREDITS is valid crestmoania.
In fact with a new account I'm gonna make a video "ABKCO SUCKS" and of course with the first song by the Stones not owned by the bastards.
WTF? I'm not making money and it was an unreleased bootleg not owned by them and I'm promoting the sales of Ya Ya's!
What's next? Do they own earth?
With all due respect: Fuck you ABKCO and you will!!

I agree. Fuck ABKCO, especially for the 2006 digital remasters of the Decca albums. The copy of England's Newest Hitmakers I bought was mastered so ridiculously loud, the stylus of a high quality phono cartridge *jumped* out of the grooves before the end of either side where the circumference tightened. The store wouldn't give a refund and neither would they. Fuck you, ABKCO. Don't buy their product.

Probably ABKCO complained because of the Ya Ya's Out images from the album cover at the beggining. They really suck, burn in hell asholes all my free hard-work on YouTUbe is now not available for the users just because an ignorant asshole complained, it was something NOT available for sale, it was a bootleg... fuck it!!
... and probably they combecause of the use of the cover of Ya Ya's as the Gimme Shelter DVD is not owned by ABKCO but "The Criterion Collection"

Allen Klein (born December 18, 1931) is an American businessman and record label executive. He is best known (and somewhat notorious) for his tenacious management of rock and roll performers in the 1960s, and the subsequent hostile acquisition and control of their works.

Allen Klein
AKA Allen B Klein
Born: 18-Dec-1931
Birthplace: Newark, NJ
Gender: Male
Religion: Money
Race or Ethnicity: White
Sexual orientation: Asexual (he only cares about money)
Occupation: Thief
Nationality: United States
Executive summary: Prehensile ABKCO executive
For any who are suffering from an excess of admiration for either The Beatles or The Rolling Stones, an easy remedy can be found in examining how both groups were taken by New York bullshit aficionado Allen Klein. Klein began his "relationship to the arts" as an audit consultant, but no doubt he quickly recognized that there were richer mines to be dug than this field, and in 1960 he switched over to a business management racket. By 1967, Klein had also taken control of the Cameo-Parkway record label, which was then renamed ABKCO Industries.
The Rolling Stones suffered perhaps the greatest loss from their involvement with Klein. Through their dealings with him, the band lost all control over the copyrights to both their recordings and publishing produced between 1962 and 1971 -- including some of their most popular material, such as the songs Satisfaction and Jumping Jack Flash. Despite a lawsuit brought against Allen Klein by the Stones, this condition persists to the present, preventing the band from issuing any kind of career restrospective that includes recordings from this time period. Other artists similarly afflicted include Sam Cooke, Herman's Hermits and Question Mark and the Mysterians.
The Beatles involvement with ABKCO began in January 1969, when John Lennon appointed Allen Klein his personal advisor, in hopes of straightening out the free-for-all atmosphere prevailing at Apple records. In extremely short order, Klein also became business manager for both the Beatles and Apple Records. Three out of the four Beatles agreed to this arrangement; Paul McCartney, however, refused to sign and enlisted the law firm of his wife's family to keep an eye on Klein's activities. Klein did indeed clean house at Apple, but replaced the anarchic form of financial mis-management with a financial mis-management that directly benefitted himself. A series of convoluted contract negotiations resulted in the Beatles' loss of control of Northern Songs, a healthy cut of the profits going straight to Klein, and the loss of several promising young artists signed or about-to-be-signed to Apple (such as James Taylor) being lost to the aether.
In 1970, Paul McCartney filed suit against Klein and the other three Beatles in an attempt to extricate himself from the mess, salvage Apple Records, and oust Klein once and for all. Klein was eventually charged with mismanagement, but the subsequent legal struggle dragged out for nearly 10 years.

Chilean born artist raised in Mexico Alejandro Jodorowsky was a vistim of this sucker too...
In his own words (later a translation)
Allen Klein insiste en prohibir que mis películas sean exhibidas. Ahora está tratando de hacerme un juicio por haber mostrado mis películas en algunos festivales y con copias piratas. Sería bueno que las personas que admiran mi obra pidieran la cárcel a perpetuidad para Klein, acusándolo de crímen cultural.
Asesinar una obra de arte es tan monstruoso como asesinar a un ser humano. Durante ya 25 años Klein ha impedido que el público vea "El Topo" y "La montaña sagrada". Ha destruìdo los negativos originales. Es necesario iniciar una campaña mundial contra él y sus crímenes...
Por favor, traduzcan este mensaje a todos los idiomas posibles y envíenlo al mayor número de personas que puedan.
Estableceremos así la existencia del crímen cultural contra la humanidad. Allen Klein es un criminal junto con sus abogados cómplices. Todos ellos merecen el castigo de la cárcel.
Alejandro Jodorowsky.

In his own words (later a translation) now in French
Allen Klein continue d'interdire qu'on montre mes films. Il essaie maintenant de me faire un procès pour avoir montré mes ouvres lors de festivals ou en copies pirates.
Il serait bon que les personnes qui admirent mon ouvre demandent la prison a perpetuité pour Klein, au motif de crime culturel. Assassiner une ouvre d'art est aussi monstrueux qu'assassiner un être humain. Depuis 25 ans Klein empêche le public de voir "El Topo" et "La Montagne Sacrée".
Il a détruit les négatifs originaux. Il est nécessaire d'entamer une campagne mondiale contre lui et ses crimes. S'il vous plaît, traduisez cette lettre dans toutes les langues possibles et envoyez-la au plus de gens possible. Nous établirons ainsi l'existence du crime culturel contre l'humanité. Allen Klein est un criminel, et ses avocats sont ses complices. Ils méritent la prison
