Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free album cover true for He Thinks He's Ray Stevens
Description	This is the cover art for He Thinks He's Ray Stevens by the artist Ray Stevens. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to the label, MCA Records, or the graphic artist(s), Bill Brunt. Cover of Ray Stevens' 1984 album He Thinks He's Ray Stevens. Photography by Slick Lawson, according to liner notes.
Source	Scanned from personal album collection. This is from the compact disk version of the album.
Article	He Thinks He's Ray Stevens
Portion used	Entire album cover, as this is the only way the album can be adequately identified without misrepresentation of the image.
Low resolution?	Album cover art has been reduced in quality from the original, and is sufficient for identification purposes of the album. Image quality is inferior to original, contains artifacts from scanning, and would not be suitable for pirate versions of the album.
Purpose of use	Section. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. Solely to identify the album in question for critical commentary and identification purposes in the Wikipedia article. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public.
Replaceable?	As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image would be misleading as to the identity of the work. No free image exists for this purpose, as any other image of the recording would also be copyrighted. Any image not true to the original would not be sufficient for identifying the album in question.
Other information	Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under the copyright law of the United States as described above.
