Here's a tracklisting on this:

side one:
king tubby - psyche out (r.norris/gpo)
pearl necklace - rapid bliss (r.norris/gpo)
thee loaded angels - aquarius rising (r.norris/gpo)
wolves of the sun - last night (r.norris/gpo)
mistress mix - blue heart (paula po/r.norris/gpo)
grisedla - oxygen (r.norris/gpo)

side two:
psychic tv - jump thee gun (gpo)
over thee brink - terminate (r.norris/gpo)
vernon castle - youth (r.norris/gpo)
nobody uninc - only human (nobody uninc/r.norris/gpo)
alligator sheer - balkan red alert (d. ball)
m.e.s.h. - m.e.s.h. (ball/norris)

side three:
virgina featuring mista luv (ball/ball)
sugardog - groove to get down (gosling/wheelan)
mistress mix - wicked (paula po/gpo)
psychic tv - scared to live (gpo)

side four:
dj doktor megatrip & mista luv (gpo/ball)
sickbomb - sandoz tabman (gianelli)
psychic tv - tune in (turn on the acid house) (gpo)
dj doktor megatrip & mista luv - joy (gpo/ball)

members of psychic tv at one time or another that i know of:
genesis, paula, david ball, fred gianelli & john gosling... 

if i remember correctly, the jack the tab collected a bunch of 
tracks from various other releases... more material in this 
vein included Ultrahouse & Towards (and Beyond) Thee Infinite Beat, 
the M.E.S.H. 12", along with some other stuff... The comp you're thinking
of must be a different one, but I wouldn't doubt that WaxTrax released
it...
