Rationale for Fair Use in "Watching the River Flow"

 * 1) It illustrates the educational article "Watching the River Flow", which specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken. The audio sample illustrates the "blistering guitar" and "rollicking piano" discussed by writer Anthony Varesi, and it illustrates the "choppy rhythms, and 'stroppy stomping' of the backing track", discussed by Christopher Ricks.
 * 2) It is a sample from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording. It is 21 seconds long, which is less than 10% of the original recording.
 * 3) It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * 4) 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.
