Fair use rationale for Image:Orbisongrindreams1987.jpg
Image:Orbisongrindreams1987.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Motive for re-recording
Are we sure the motive wasn't commercial? My understanding is that a lot of musicians from the 1950s and 1960s re-recorded their material in the 1980s, primarily to increase revenue. Many were ripped off in the early days (or signed deals which befitted their then status as unknown artists) and this gave them an element of control.
