I'm not sure that this has ever been released. I remember rumours about them compiling all the plug EPs together onto CD, but I don't think it happened (Maybe it did, I really am not certain). But, there is a Plug-DrumNBass for Papa which I'm listening to right now which is pretty indicative of his D&B style, but not as good as some of his other Jungle outings. Plug 3 -Versatile Crater Funk (or something like that) is pretty good intelligent Plug styled jungle. The Wagon Christ Redone EP has some wicked jungle action on it though, a little harder than the Plug releases.

This is nothing like Plug. In fact, its very little like "typical" <read, most other> Wagon Christ releases at all. This was his first full length under this moniker and is very ambient and sparse, but also one of my favorite Luke Vibert works.

Relatively rare, but not altogther hard to find. I found mine here in the states at a shop in Orlando for 10 bucks or so. Its not much like the other Gescom releases, but if you listen you can tell its them. Very 4/4 style beats w/tweaking and small variations in beat patterns. I haven't listened to it in a while though so I can't give a perfectly clear opinion. Sorry for some vagueness, but I'm only on my second cup of coffee <addiction maybe?!? >
