I see that the Procol Harum court fight has been resolved:

LONDON, England (AP) -- The lead singer of British band Procol Harum has won an appeal court judgment awarding him full royalties for the band's iconic hit, "A Whiter Shade of Pale."

Britain's Court of Appeal ruled in rock star Gary Brooker's favor, overturning an earlier lower court decision awarding the group's former organist 40 percent of the royalties from the song.

The Court of Appeal said that Matthew Fisher, who played the song's haunting organ theme, was entitled to co-authorship. However, the court said he will receive no money from past or future royalties because he waited too long to make his claim.

...but hey, if we're doing things like determining who wrote something, shouldn't this guy get a credit, too?
