Summary
| Description |
English: One of side-A labels for one of early pressings of the US 12-inch vinyl single release of "Rapper's Delight" by Sugarhill Gang. This pressing doesn't credit "Good Times" by Chic. According to sources, this is one of earlier pressings before the lawsuit for copyright infringement when the band Sugarhill Gang sampled Chic's song. After the lawsuit was settled, Chic's song was credited in later pressings of single releases, especially in 1979. |

The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright.
This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection.
