Fair use rationale for Pop music
The use of this sleeve or cover of a commercial audio recording constitutes "fair use" under United States copyright Law for the following reasons:


 * it illustrates an encyclopedic article on the genre of the recording, of which it is an emblematic example,
 * its quality has been significantly reduced, and can not therefore replace the original,
 * it is here affixed in the belief that the copyright holder's rights over the original will not be affected in any way,
 * there is no alternative uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample available of comparable import, and
 * it is placed in good faith, in the hope that it will amplify and elevate the recording from which it was drawn.
