I'd go with the dreamworks for both, aside from the bonus trax, it's a
bit easier to find, i guess.
btw... for those who care, here's a dr. octagon (post ultramagnetic kool
keith and automator) discography (slightly modified from the one that
appeared in urb a bit back)
It should answer most of these questions (might also bring a few up)
It's all 'McGannonized" for ease of viewing:
. Big Willie Smith: Keep It Real, Represent 12"(Funky Ass)
aka Kool Keith; feat. Da Beat Terrorists
. Godfather Don feat. Kool Keith: The Centubites 12" (Fondle Em')
. Dr. Octagon: Earth People 12" (Bulk)
. Dr. Octagon (Bulk CD/2xLP)
Produced by the automator, scratching by Q-Bert; CD has hidden
track, "mr. gerbik: halfsharkaligatorhalfman"
. Kool Keith: Wannabe A Star 12" (Funky Ass)
. Automator: A Better Tommarow EP (Ubiquity)
. Kool Keith: Reprasent Part 2 12" (Funky Ass)
. Dr. Octagon CD/3xLP (Mo' Wax UK)
with new cover art.
. Ultra: Big Time 12" (Our Turn)

. Dr. Octagon: Insturmentalist CD (Dreamworks/Bulk)
Feat. 2 bonus tracks, but has the boring artwork :-(
Keith also rapped over a track on prodigy's 'fat of the land', but for
the life of me, i can't remember the title.
