Drum 'n' Bass for Papa is an album by the experimental electronic music artist by Luke Vibert under his alias of Plug. The album was released originally released on vinyl in 1996 (see 1996 in music) by Blue Planet Recordings. The album Plug was used to release more Drum 'n' Bass oriented music.

The album has gone through several different releases. The first was a compact disc release with additional bonus tracks titled Drum 'N' Bass for Papa + Special Edition CD; it had a different cover art and the discs are colored dark blue instead of the original sepia tone^[1]

The album was released again on Trent Reznor's label Nothing Records on September 9, 1997, it was a double album on compact disc that included the three EPs Plug released. This version of the album had the same cover as the Special Edition version but changed "Special Edition" to "+plug ep's 1,2, & 3" for the title. It was released under the title Drum 'N' Bass for Papa +plug EP's 1, 2 & 3. The other difference in this version is that the import includes the track "The Life of the Mind" wasn't included on the album due to problems with a sample clearance.^[2] The sample in question was John Goodman's screaming freakout from the film Barton Fink.
