[edit] Summary

Album cover image for Rare and Well Done by Al Kooper

[edit] Rationale of fair use for Al Kooper article

This is a thumbnail album cover image to accompany a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

It illustrates an educational article specifically about the song from which this sample was taken. The section of music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's lyrics, musical and vocal style or is archetypal of the artist's style.
It is a thumbnail image of low quality, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.

I believe that this use of the excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances the quality of the related articles without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn. uriel8 (talk) 17:07, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
