This bit bugs me

"These techniques, refined via the use of computers and digital audio equipment, are now standard amongst producers of electronically-based music."

I've put a 'citation needed' tag after it. If it was worded: "This approach is in principal very similar to modern-day sampling, via the use of computers and digital instruments, a process so widespread that it is now used frequently in production of all kinds of music," it would be fine.

The way it's currently worded implies that this album influenced sampling. I'm not saying that it didn't, just that someone needs to find a good reliable quote that says it did, or else reword it so that it's merely highlighting the similarities. It's mainly the "are now standard" part - producers of "electronically-based music" actually don't often sample from live sessions at all. It does happen, but the main point here should be that the process on this record was essentially what we today call sampling. I hope that makes sense... 82.11.194.227 (talk) 15:59, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Miles Davis on the corner.png

Image:Miles Davis on the corner.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
