HALL + OATES SUE PUBLISHER

DARYL HALL and JOHN OATES are suing their music publisher in a bid to protect their rights to 80s hit MANEATER.

DARYL HALL and JOHN OATES

In their suit, which was filed in Manhattan's state Supreme Court in New York, Hall and Oates claim an unidentified singer/songwriter used Maneater in a 2006 recording without their knowledge.

The duo insists Warner/Chappell Music Inc. breached its publishing contract with them by refusing to sue for copyright infringement.

Hall and Oates are seeking unspecified money damages.
