I've been wanting to purchase this since it came out, but it is now only available for Amazon Prime members, and the Amazon Marketplace sellers offering reasonable prices are from overseas.
I'm having a hard time waiting for this to come available here in the states. I think I own every volume in the songwriters series from Ace.

The Amazon listing does mark it as "Prime," but the CD should be available to anyone who wants to purchase it. The "Primie" designation just indicates that Amazon Prime members get free shipping on this product without needing to make a minimum amount purchase (currently $25, I think). However, the listing does currently say that it may take 1 to 4 weeks for shipment. The $11.99 price right now is a good one, though.

There are a few third party sellers at Amazon USA (a couple based in America, others in the UK) who are cheaper than ordering direct from Ace Records (who themselves are in the UK):

Hmm...I just took a closer look at the listening, and, of course, you're right about the "exclusively for Prime members" description. Sorry about my previous reply. I don't think I've ever noticed this designation before! Anyone know if this is something new with Amazon, or was I just blind to it as a Prime member myself?

As a Prime member, you would just be clicking right through to checkout so it's not something that would have been really obvious. Amazon has been doing "Prime only" CDs randomly for a while. They usually don't last very long. This listing will most likely be open to all buyers again soon.

Thanks, Linda.
This is the first time a CD I wanted to purchase from Amazon was a Prime exclusive. I'll check it again next week and see if it will be available to a non-Prime member like myself. Amazon's price can't be beat so far.
