Favorite Oakenfold Set/Mix?

I don't want this to be a Rubez style jizz-fest, but I'm curious as to what people's favorite Oakenfold sets are.
Yes, it's popular to hate on Oakie, for his awful mixing abilities and for pictures like the cover of Vegas:
He's also undoubtedly been both a good influence on the scene (signing and popularizing BT, Man With No Name, etc.), and an awful one (does this have to be explained?).
But what are your guys' favorite sets of his? |

| That cover is my favorite. |

Well this thread came at the perfect time after I just completed his world tour. I know I'm 14 years late though.
Gatecrasher (19-06-99) could be my favorite. From what I've heard so far, his sets from 1995-2000 were class. |

The last Oakenfold mix comp I recall myself actually enjoying was 'Creamfields' back in '04, and the last set I enjoyed (and really enjoyed, in this case) was his Queensday Mix, 'Oakey's Orange Hours,' a year later. Fortunately, someone put in the effort to upload it, which is good considering that it's a (mostly) stellar mix from (pretty much) beginning to (just about) end:

I'm not a huge Oakey fan and none of his sets are "special" to me in the same way Sasha, Digweed, PVD and so on have special mixes. I've listened to the Rojam Mix and the Goa Mix the most, but this one is probably the best I've heard (and plagued with usual accusations from people who were there that it was a re-recording later in the studio):
01. BT - Tripping The Light Fantastic
02. B.T. Featuring Vincent Covello - Loving You More (B.T.'s Garden Of Ima Dub)
03. Wild Colour - Dreams (B.T.'s Circadian Dream)
04. Tilt - I Dream (Casa De Angeles Mix)
05. Quivver - Believe In Me (Original Q Mix)
06. Grace - Orange (Original Perfecto Mix)
07. Jam & Spoon - Odyssey To Anyoona
08. Grace - I Want To Live (Rollo & Sister Bliss Mix)
09. Crescendo - Are You Out There (Original Mix)
10. Remake - Blade Runner (Replicant Mix)
11. Shady - Pearls (Hallelujah) (Paul Gotel's Pacha Soundscape)
12. Bump - I'm Rushing '95 (Bump '95 Mix)
13. Desert - Moods (Club Mix)
14. Jimmy Somerville - By Your Side (The Shining Mix)
15. Traci Lords - Fallen Angel (Perfecto Mix)
16. Third Eye - You Know
17. The Prodigy - Skylined
18. Man With No Name - Floor-Essence (Dayglo Mix)
19. E-Type - This Is The Way (Biff N Memphis Instrumental)
20. E'voke - Runaway (Biff 'n' Memphis 12")
21. Virus - Sun (Jam El Mar Mix) |
