I am looking for Joe Dolce’s _Shaddap You Face_ on CD, or on tape if I absolutely have to. This CD exists because I used to own it a long time ago. What I want is the full length version, not the single with just the title song. The songs on it are: | If You Want To Be Happy | 3:22 | | --- | --- | | Walking The Dog | 3:20 | | Shaddap You Face | 3:10 | | Ain’t Been Missing You | 3:00 | | Return (Part 1) | 3:05 | | Ain’t No U.F.O. Gonna Catch My Diesel | 2:51 | | How Can Our Love To Be Gone | 3:11 | | Stick It Out | 3:40 | | Boat People | 4:14 | | Return (Part 2) | 1:54 | Yes, I know he put out a lot of music and poetry, but what I want is this particular CD only. Thank you. ---

1. Set up an eBay alert for when and if it becomes available. [This is probably the CDs Product Details.](https://www.ebay.com/p/1400988438#ProductDetails) ---

It sometimes take months, but I’m about 80% successful with eBay alerts when I’ve used them in the past. ---

I even checked Amazon Music, and all they’ve got is the “Shaddap You Face” single. ---

You could try emailing him. I don’t know if this email is current but could be worth a try: [dolcej@yahoo.com](mailto:dolcej@yahoo.com) ---

The place to go for collectors is [https://www.discogs.com](https://www.discogs.com) It can be a little but of work because you have to sift thru all the different versions sometimes to find what you want, but this is where folks like me buy & sell music. Joe Dolce’s album was pressed in Canada and in Germany, near as I can tell. I found just one for sale, from a guy in Italy for $21 plus shipping: [Joe Dolce - Shaddap You Face (CD, Germany, 0) For Sale | Discogs](https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/9206266) ETA: Here is the page with the track listings for that pressing, etc.: [Joe Dolce – Shaddap You Face (CD) - Discogs](https://www.discogs.com/Joe-Dolce-Shaddap-You-Face/release/9206266) ---

I saw that, and I wasn’t sure if he was selling both the CD and the album, or if it was released in both formats. ---

“Album” is not a format. An album is a collection of things. You’ll see Album and Single listings on Discogs. CD, LP, 45, VINYL, CASS… these are formats. So what you saw was a listing for a CD copy of the album. ---

It says “Not available in United States”. ---

I sent him a message (on your behalf) asking about that. I wasn’t sure if non-members can send messages within the site, so I went ahead. ---

Sorry, man. All I got back was > [@CaptainJack](#): > > We don’t ship to USA. > > Cheers It costs nothing to set up an account; then you can set up a search similar to eBay where you’ll get emails when one shows up for sale.
