Non-free / fair use media rationale for Finding My Way
Description	This image is a digital photograph zoom of the label of a promotional copy of the 45 RPM single Finding My Way from Rush (band)'s first album Rush (album) (1974).

Article	Finding My Way
Portion used	album cover
Low resolution?	low resolution
Purpose of use	Since 1) this is a photograph taken personally and 2) this image is of a promotional 45 RPM record, there should be no licensing problem with this image. This image is a low-resolution image of an album cover. This image does not limit the copyright holder's ability to profit from the original source, nor will it dilute the importance or recognition of the album or the artist in connection with its organization. This image enhances the article in which it's displayed, as it provides an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description alone. Use of the album cover visually identifies the album and the artist and its products in a manner that mere prose cannot, and meets all criteria in WP:NFCC.
Replaceable?	Not replaceable; album covers are always presumed non-free.
