Quality Stuff

You find these labels in books and music that seem to produce only releases of the highest quality. From the actual recorded or printed material to the visual artwork presented and down to the most minor details. Like Copper Canyon Press for poetry and Blue Note Records for classic jazz. Every effort is total quality. Nothing seems to be overlooked. There's little need for sound samples and reviews. You feel excitement when you spot their trademark. There's a feeling of not taking chances with your money.

Maybe it has to do with focusing on and specializing in one thing? ..... Copper Canyon Press (Bonus points for being Pacific Northwest based) is just concerned with poetry. No fiction, no biographies, etc..

Or maybe it's a genuine and deep passion for what they're doing? That much is obvious!!
