http://maharashtratimes.indiatimes.com/no/-/articleshow/3567708.cms about a memorial program in his honour in 2008 Maharashtra Times. Notes the following 4 popular songs ' तुझ्या गळा माझ्या गळा', 'आली हासत पहिली रात', 'लेक लाडकी या घरची', 'प्रेमा काय देऊ तुला?' are his best-known compositions. http://maharashtratimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/37393757.cms talks about his partnership with notable Marathi lyricist P. Savalaram (article on Savalaram). http://aajtak.intoday.in/gallery/photos-34-1048.html talks about Lata Mangeshkar prominently singing his songs, among a list of 4 Marathi music composers. https://books.google.co.in/books?id=RH9YAAAAMAAJ&q=vasant+Prabhu+music&dq=vasant+Prabhu+music&hl=en&sa=X&ei=68QkVZLUCMSeugTSj4H4Bg&ved=0CCsQ6AEwAw (snippet available) as a notable music director and lists his films and partnership with P. Savalaram. "Vasant Prabhu was another music director of this period. His music in PATLACHA POR, TARAKA, VADAL, SHIKLELI BAYAKO, GRUHA- DEVATA, PUTRA WHAVA AISA proved very popular. Like the Mudgulkar-Phadke pair, Vasant Prabhu-P.Savlaram pair earned renown". The problem in finding references for this article via google is that in English, Visa CFO Vasant M. Prabhu and in Marathi, a news photographer called Vasant Prabhu is showing up (). However, various music sites https://itunes.apple.com/in/artist/vasant-prabhu/id535433494 iTunes, http://gaana.com/artist/vasant-prabhu Gaana.com have playlists of Vasant Prabhu
