Fair use rationale for Image:JudasPriest JohnnyBeGood Single 1988.jpg

Image:JudasPriest JohnnyBeGood Single 1988.jpg 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Drums

In interviews, members of Judas Priest have stated that all drums on Ram It Down were played by a drum machine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.155.160.126 (talk) 02:19, 5 July 2008 (UTC) Great: reference the interviews, please. 86.129.2.169 (talk) 00:22, 6 July 2008 (UTC)Al[reply]

Not Speed Metal

Actually, more than anything, this album has a very Power Metal feel to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.73.98.253 (talk) 20:35, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Johnny Be Good" Wording

I have a slight problem with the following "The band recorded a rendition of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode", intended for inclusion on the soundtrack for the 1988 Anthony Michael Hall comedy film Johnny Be Good;" I think that "intended for inclusion" makes it sounds as if something went wrong and the song wasn't actually included. I would say "A rendition of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode was recorded for inclusion on the soundtrack...". Easy Peasy, IMHO. Cheers! FiggazWithAttitude (talk) 15:19, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not only that, in the text of the article it states that it was the first single to be released from the album. Over on the right in that column, it lists Johnny B. Goode as having been the second single released. Which is it? This needs to be corrected because both can't be right. HaarFager (talk) 00:06, 30 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
And another problem is that the article says that they only kept the lyrics, and they completely changed the melody. This is total nonsense. The melody is largely the same, they even kept the ideas from the chord sequence. Csab (talk) 18:41, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
