Yeah, t was an essential mix from 1995 - think that there may be a Wikipedia entry on it if I remember rightly. Basically, it is class! Fuses classical music, Ennio Morricone with Goa Trance/Trance and movie dialogue (eg First Track - Oakenfold and Osbourne - Orange (Later Grace - Skin on Skin) and is based on the idea of a Goan full moon party. I know that it aired twice and at the time was voted to be the best essential mix ever. There were some bootleg copies sold after this on cd, and I believe that they were worth a bob or two. Other tracks of note are Goldie - Inner City Life (think it was an accapella) and quite a lot from the Perfecto Fluro label. Oh, and it had Li Kwan - Point Zero on there as well, which is probably the best track on there. Not much of a review, I know (I have the flu!), but it should give you an idea! I think I may have an hour or so of it on a tape, but if anyone can upload it.........?

I still have my original C90 tape recording of this mix with all the pete tong voice over.

Its the mix i listen to the most (except for my own) ,pretty much timeless (the first half is better than the second)

It was first officially released on cassette Paul Oakenfold.The Goa Mix. 2 Cassettes..Original! RARE - eBay, Cassettes, Music (end time 28-Oct-07 18:59:53 GMT)

then on a very limited Cream CD run, which had the cream logo on the case inlet

There is a lot of bootleg CD's which dont have the cream logo and you can scratch the logo of the CD with your fingernail.
