It is a picture of an album cover, representing a small percentage of the actual product. The copyright owners' rights to sell the CD are in no way limited by the inclusion in WikiPedia;

There are no alternatives of illustrating said album cover that would not fall under fair use laws. HarryCane 13:57, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
