This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers

solely to illustrate the audio recording in question,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For an example fair use rationale, see here.

[edit] Fair use rationale for article People (The Golden Republic EP)

I believe that use of this image in the Wikipedia article People (The Golden Republic EP) qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law for the following reasons:

The image is irreplaceable; a free analogue is impossible to produce
Only a small portion of a copyrighted work is used
The image is used solely to illustrate the audio recording in question
The use of this image does not compete with the copyright holders' usage
The image is of inferior quality compared to that of an original, having been reduced to a web-resolution
