"Everyone knows that baseball and American culture are deeply intertwined, but the Diamond Cuts compilation series proves it. Jeff Campbell's labor of love in collecting seven CDs worth of baseball music stands as one of the great contributions of a single fan to the game. And the fact that all of the music is good music, not just novelty knock-offs, makes the achievement a contribution to American musical culture as well. " Tim Wiles, National Baseball Hall of Fame
