Paul Oakenfold, Essential Mix, Live in Havana

I used to listen to the Essential Mix on Radio One FM when I lived in Oxford and spent hours in the darkroom rockin out and making latest photo prints.  That’s how I got introduced to Paul Oakenfold – whom I’d like to actually meet some day if circumstances conspire.

This set – Live in Havana, is over an hour long I think – I got it off of Napster in 1999 and over the course of the next two years listened to it about 500 times while working out and driving and then… somewhere in the early 2000s…. lost it in the flotsam and jetsam of digital media management.

So a month ago, it occurs to me “I’m sure Oakie would love to have this set on the web for his fans” and I do a simple web search.  Easy!  but I’m confident that Oakie would want it this way.  You can’t find this stuff to buy, I’m pretty sure. Anyway, enjoy!
