The term was used as the title of Meat Loaf's 1977 multi-platinum album that featured songs that Steinman wrote. Turns out that 11 years ago Steinman trademarked the term and Meat is suing for more $50 million saying the term should legally be associated with him not Steinman and further accuses Steinman and Sonenberg of blackmail in the federal lawsuit filed on May 26th in Los Angeles.
Aday is currently recording the second follow-up album to "Bat Out of Hell" and claims that his former partners are interfering with distribution contracts by refusing to release the trademark rights to the name. You can read more details about this case at the full story link.
