Fair use rationale for Image:LaVernBakerAlbumcover.jpg
Image:LaVernBakerAlbumcover.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 23:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Memphis Minnie
This article refers to LaVern's family relationship with Memphis Minnie, and many of the biographical sites mentioned here give Memphis Minnie's birth name as Merline Baker. But, Memphis Minnie's birth name was not Merline Baker, it was Lizzie Douglas. I've raised this at Talk:Memphis Minnie, and it's clear that is the case. So, what was LaVern Baker's relationship with Memphis Minnie, and where has the name Merline Baker come from? Confusion with Merline Johnson, perhaps? Anyone know??

Think Twice (normal and version X) Record and Release Date
The date of recording for all Think Twice versions was the 2. September in 1965, not in 1966. You can find this Date in liner notes of several Releases, example: Bear-Family Records BCD 16816 (Eat to the Beat). The normal version came out on Brunswick ‎55287 in late 1965. The Flipside of this record (Please Don't Hurt Me)was listed in Billboard, 11. Dezember 1965, page 18. 85.176.199.117 (talk) 18:41, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
