* '''Producer:''' [[George Martin]]

==Fair use rationale for [[In My Life]]==
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
* It illustrates an educational article specifically about the song from which this sample was taken.
* It is a sample of less than 30 seconds of the original 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 commercially available digital versions of the original recording.
* It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
* 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.

==Fair use rationale for ''[[Rubber Soul]]''==
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
* The song is discussed in the context of its initial release, on the Beatles' ''Rubber Soul'' album. It exemplifies two key themes of the album article: the Beatles' drawing inspiration from the [[soul music]] of contemporary artists signed to the Motown and Stax record labels; and how ''Rubber Soul'' represented a significant progression on the Beatles' previous work in terms of lyrical content and recording practice. Accompanying the sample, in a subsection dedicated to "In My Life", the text discusses the inspiration provided by [[the Miracles]]' "[[The Tracks of My Tears]]" and the reciprocal influences shared between the Beatles and the Miracles. The song's lyrics evoke [[John Lennon]]'s youth in Liverpool and reflect his nostalgia for a time before the Beatles achieved international fame; in Lennon's description, the song was his "first real major piece of work". As discussed in the article's Production section, the song's piano solo, styled through tape-speed manipulation to sound like a harpsichord, is an example of the Beatles' use of more-advanced studio techniques and diverse sounds on ''Rubber Soul'' and, in its Bach-like quality, as an example of their incorporation of aspects of classical music through their producer, George Martin. Author Jonathan Gould cites the "In My Life" as the album's sole example of a song that evokes the Beatles' "original ground theme of happiness-in-relationship".
* It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
* 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 a sample of less than 30 seconds and no more than 10% of the original recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording. It is also of a lower quality than the commercially available digital versions of the original recording.

The use of the excerpt is in good faith, and its inclusion enhances the quality of the album article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn.
