Seems as though Meat Loaf has turned sour over being a "Bat Out Of Hell." Late last month, Marvin Lee Aday, also known as Meat Loaf, filed a lawsuit to gain sole ownership of the phrase. "Bat Out Of Hell" has been associated with Meat Loaf since the 1977 release of the album of the same name. The "Bat Out Of Hell" album, coupled with the 1993 follow up, "Bat Out Of Hell II," has sold 48 million copies worldwirde. What may turn people's stomachs is the fact that his estranged music partner, Jim Steinman, was actually the one who wrote the powerful rock classic. Meat Loaf claims that Steinman, with whom he's been feuding with in past years, is wrongfully using the phrase. Meat Loaf is seeking $50 million in damages. The suit continues to state that Steinman, along with ex-manager David Sonenberg, have been using "blackmail" and "hold-up" methods to prevent his new music from being released. According to the court documents, Steinman and Sonenberg have been trying to halt the October release of Meat Loaf's third installment, "Bat Out Of Hell III," by contacting the album's distributors and telling them Aday had no right to use the phrase. Steinman not only wrote, but produced the second album; due to a falling out, he is not involved with the third. Steinman has yet to comment.
