Summary
Cover of the album Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash by The Pogues.

Fair use rationale in Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash

 * 1) No free or public domain images can be located for this album.
 * 2) The image is of lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal CD copies of the single.
 * 3) The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the album in any way.
 * 4) For an article about an album, the cover artwork is arguably one of the most important images that could be included.
 * 5) This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is. The cover is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original album in any way.

Source

 * 1) Derived from a digital capture (scan/photo) of the album/CD cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the record company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
