Fair use rationale in "Amazing Grace" by Judy Collins
edit- Judy Collins' 1970 version of "Amazing Grace" became a hit single despite her never releasing it as such. Her version is considered one of the most notable recordings of the song for its spontaneous popularity. It also illustrates her personalized interpretation of the note slides in single syllables, something that was not included in publisher Edwin O. Excell's widely influential notations at the beginning of the 20th century. (Moyers) This sample illustrates the transition from her lone voice to backup with a chorus, which was duplicated by the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards' instrumental version two years later. Because of its influence in the crossover from gospel to secular, words are inadequate in describing it and presenting the sound is necessary for a complete understanding. The sound sample is in an educational article specifically about the song from which this sample was taken. These issues are cited to reliable sources in the "Amazing Grace" article.
- It is a sample of no more than 30 seconds from a 4:12 recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
- It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
- 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.
- It is uploaded on Wikipedia, a not-for-profit organisation.
