He'll need to speak to PRS about the costs involved of using Canned Heats's song.
He will have to provide info such as projected usage, airplay etc... and pay accordingly

It's very easy these days. I walked someone through this last week. Just go to the website (as above), buy a limited licence for the right use, plumb in a credit card and if you feel so inclined, you can print out a certificate.
