Fuel Records’ CEO Len Fico owns or has long-term licenses
for thousands of tracks, including pop hits such as The Outsiders’ “Time Won’t
Let Me,” Vanilla Fudge’s “You Keep Me Hanging On,” Bob Welch’s “Sentimental
Lady” and The Buckingham’s “King of a Drag.” Recently, tracks from Fuel’s
library were placed in the films American Gangster and Bee Movie.
“Rich [Goldman] and Bob [Kaminsky] and their team at RipTide
Music have a great reputation, they’re respected in this industry, and they’re
highly knowledgeable about the significance of these songs and this material,”
says Fico. “More importantly, they’re music people…they know what these songs
are about and what they mean to popular culture. They have strong credibility
in matching these songs to the right media project, since they know this
catalog and these artists so well.”
