The Role of the Expert Witness for the Defense in a Music Copyright Infringement Matter E. Michael Harrington William Paterson University You have written a song that your band has recorded and released. It begins to sell when unexpectedly you receive notice that another rock band is convinced you’ve stolen their song. An attorney representing that band has alleged that your song copied their song and demands that you stop selling your song and pay that band substantial money for damages. In addition, he demands that your song be pulled off all radio playlists and the video taken off all cable channels and web sites. The plaintiffs have not yet asked for your first born—but more complaints and demands could be forthcoming. You are about to become a defendant in a copyright infringement lawsuit—a federal offense—and this is the first time you have ever been accused of breaking a federal law. Fortunately, you have an experienced entertainment attorney with a strong understanding of copyright law. He is from a top-tier law school and has worked in the entertainment industry for many years. He is not your cousin the divorce attorney who is willing to help you for free or a reduced rate because “blood is thicker than water,” or your college roommate who has just passed the state bar exam and is up for a challenge in the infancy of his legal career.

  • For Reunited Foster and Lloyd
    Playing with History: Influential Duo Makes Greenville Show ‘Sweet’ for Reunited Foster and Lloyd By Lance Martin Special for the Threadgill Concert Series Count Radney Foster among the fans who will be at the Kenneth Threadgill Concert Series on Feb. 23 in Greenville. While he’ll be performing as part of Foster and Lloyd, a power duo that reunited in 2010 after a 20‐year hiatus, Foster says the other duo on the bill, Chris Hillman and Herb Petersen, are a pair he can’t wait to see. He credits them as major influences on the label‐defying music that made Foster and Lloyd a hit in the late ‘80s. Foster says sharing the stage with Hillman in particular, who was a member of The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers and Desert Rose Band, will be a thrill. “Chris was such an influence on Foster and Lloyd being both a Byrd and in the Burritos,” Foster said. “If you had to sum up Foster and Lloyd, it is a lot of disparate parts: you’ve got a Beatles influence; you’ve got a Buck (Owens) and Don Rich influence; and you’ve got an Everly Brothers influence. It goes from rockabilly to honky tonk to psychedelia.” Foster remembers being introduced to The Flying Burrito Brothers in the early ‘70s, when he was learning guitar, and soon understood how The Byrds’ “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” album from 1968 “changed all kinds of things for everyone.” “The Burritos, Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young’s ‘Déjà Vu’ record and all those things were just melting folk, and rock and country all together,” Foster says.
