Amazon shows the release date as 7/30. My wholesale price is $24, so there is no way I'll be carrying it, but I suspect it will be less then that on Amazon from 3rd party sellers. I was surprised to see that Amazon's actual price is $37 USD; the US dollar is really weak right now! Amazon UK's price is 12 pounds, that's about the same as my $24 USD wholesale.....


Tony Visconti Record Producers CD 3973412

Tony Visconti is one of the most important and influential music producers of the last 40 years. This collection of 17 tracks from the Visconti archives is a fitting tribute to the scale and scope of his work. The album includes gems such as the French version of Bowie's "Heros" (never before released on CD), the original Mercury single of the Bowie track "The Prettiest Star", the Bowie/Bolan/Visconti written & recorded "Dib Cochra" track "Oh Baby, the rare Surprise Sisters version of the Beatles track "Got To Get You Into My Life" plus T Rex glam stompers Telegram Sam and Metal Guru along with more recent works such as the Morrissey track "You Have Killed Me" and the Visconti arranged Mercury Rev track "Chains". Put together with the full cooperation of Visconti the album will be packaged in hard card digi pack with 20 page booklet including rare archive photos of many of the featured artists along with essays and track by track notes written by Visconti expert Neil Myners.

Geff, I found the cover art (small, unfortunately) and added it to your post along with links to both Amazon listings. The American site actually has two duplicate listings for this, one of them at the lower price of $29.49 ~ this is probably the correct listing (not the $37 one) since it corresponds to Amazon UK's catalogue number.

Linda, That makes sense, usually Amazon doesn't go for that high of a mark up. As a business (part of my perspective for better or worse), the music biz has gotten so freakin' weird......

Up until my main UK supplier went under last year, I could usually beat Amazon's prices; now their 3rd party retailers are usually cheaper then my wholesale......... I feel a rant coming on but I WILL CONTROL MYSELF (this time anyways)
