    I am going to have to say that Tranceport is THE best of all of the above. I have listened to that cd a million times and still absolutely love it. Another World is also a great compilation. My absolute favorite is Great Wall. That album gives me chills! The best album since Great Wall would have to be Creamfields. Most of the recent stuff hasn't moved me in the same way...but I still like a lot of it. Some of it jumps around a lot with all of the different mainstream remixes. I prefer raw underground Paul...that's my favorite!

    To me :

    Live At Creamfields, 42:30 - 48:30. Best 6 minutes of my life. Never heard anything as good since you did Mr. Paul. Still listening to it often :).

    Apart of this 6 minutes, really love all of your essentials, realllly love!

    I am a fan since 1999.

    Those aren't Oakey's compilations but ARE the greatest of his mixes!!!
    Still have them in playlist and probably can even name each of the locations they were taken from just from the first tunes!

    Glad to see I got the ball rollin' on this topic...I forgot the following:

    Perfecto: Ibiza
    Millennium Mix

    and y'all forgot Oslo--i love the downtempo and d'n b Oakey throws into those mixes.

    Tranceport and New York are two of the best trance compilations ever made--they are right there with the Northern Exposure series and the early GU's from Sasha.

    I'm sorry, but I can't really put any of his compilations after 2002 on my best of list--I'm just old school.

    Regarding the essential mixes--i have almost all of them since 1994 and I would list these as my favorites in no particular order:
    Live @ Creamfields
    Live @ Gatecrasher
    Live @ Space @ Ibiza
    Live @ Homelands
    Live @ Cream
