Saul Zaentz?  This is the guy that sued John Fogerty (ex-Creedence
Clearwater Revival songwriter/singer) over the song "Old Man Down the Road",
claiming it sounded too much like another another CCR song that John
wrote, but that Zaentz owned the rights to from his days of managing
the band and its label.

Anyone doing business with this weasel is sure to come out on the
losing end.  I'll raise a glass to ICE tonight.  One of the good 'uns gone.
