27-second sample of "All You Need Is Love" by The JAMs. Written by The JAMs, using samples of The Beatles. Source: "All You Need Is Love", The Sound of Mu(sic) JAMS 23T, 1987. Copyright 1987 KLF Communications.

This excerpt is one of two that serve to illustrate the The JAMs' debut single "All You Need Is Love". This excerpt, from the original version of the song, fell foul of the Mechanical-Copyright Protection Society for its use of samples (The Beatles and MC5).

Fair use rationale This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:


 * it illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken
 * it is a sample of about 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording; and
 * it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * 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 rather than reduces the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn. --Vinoir 09:53, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
