Void, the genius behind the one-man band Many More, died at the age of 86.  Void, who changed his name from Claude Everlast, had already amassed a small fortune before entering the music business by claiming that all checks that had "void" written on them were actually written to him.  Many More was considered the "King of the One-Hit Wonders" for the only song they ever produced, "Thank You for the Royalties."  Even though critics unanimously agreed "Thank You for the Royalties" was one of the worst songs ever written, it still appeared on more anthology albums than any other song in history.  The band's lawyer, Chester A. Softpickle, successfully argued that whenever any anthology advertisement included the statement "and many more," they meant the band "Many More," and therefore had to include the band's only song, as well as pay Void royalties... forever.  Not coincidently, compilation albums ceased to be marketed during Void's lifetime.
