Summary[edit]

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free audio or music sample true for Destroyer (Kiss album)
Description

This is the sample from a recording of Destroyer. Copyright in the recording is believed to belong to the label, Casablanca, or the artist, Kiss.

Source

A version can or could be obtained from Casablanca.

Article

Destroyer (Kiss album)

Portion used

A short section sufficient to identify the work concerned, or to aid in critical commentary of the work.

Low resolution?

The sample is of sufficient quality for commentary and identification, but its quality is reduced from the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable for "unauthorised distribution" or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original recording.

Purpose of use

Section. The audio sample is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as sample. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The audio sample is placed at the beginning of the section discussing the work, to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.
Use for this purpose stated does not compete with the purposes of the original recording, namely the artist's providing a musical performance or recording services to audio or music production concerns and in turn marketing music or audio recordings to the public.

Replaceable?

As a sample from a copyrighted musical recording, the sample is not replaceable by free content; any other sample from the same recording would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different sample would be misleading as to the identity of the work.

Other information

Use of the sample in the article is understood to be compatible with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. Use of this sample outside of Wikipedia may be subject to other terms.

Summary[edit]

30-second sample from the KISS song "Beth."
Written by Peter Criss, Stan Penridge and Bob Ezrin.
Originally released in 1976 on the Destroyer album.

Rationale for fair use in article Kiss (band) and Destroyer (album)[edit]

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.
