In 2018, cornetist/composer Bobby Bradford was commissioned by the Baseball Reliquary to write a suite of music celebrating the life of the great Jackie Robinson in honor of his centennial. Now, over a year after this wonderful recording was released but available only to the members of the Baseball Reliquary, Bobby has allowed Cryptogramophone to release it to the general public on Bandcamp!
Stealin Home was made possible by support from Los Angeles County Arts and Culture, and the Baseball Reliquary.

If you're looking for expert printers and vinyl or CD pressing, I recommend Monotype most highly. These guys really know what they're doing, and their quality can't be beat. And if you're looking for things like high-quality paper, special coatings and Pantone colors, these guys can do it no questions asked. Yes, they're in Poland, but they ship FEDEX and it's still a much better deal than the usual suspects in the US.

MonotypePressing From musicians, for musicians.
Vinyl, CD and cassettes manufacturing has never been this easy.
