Thanks. I did a search with "Bihari", but got no results.

As far as I'm concerned this thread can be locked.

I am grateful for the link to the NY Times piece. I had missed it.

I was surprised that The Times obituary played up the fact that the Bihari brothers gave themselves writing credit on songs and that the family still controls the publishing rights to those songs. Often times, when someone dies, the dirty laundry is buried with them.
