Strolling through my oldschool collection and realized I haven't posted a review of this EXCELLENT release. The Shagras mix is what you'll want, it is 100% insrumental early trance and is a dream, the pads sound very much like SFX - We Are Controlling Transmission and that main melody is so lovely that you will want to press the repeat button for countless times :) It is hard to believe that this track is 20 years old, it still sounds fresh today IMO. Sadly the other mixes have a lot of acid house influences, sound very outdated today and don't hold a candle to the Shagras mix. But if you're missing the Shagras mix, you're missing a big part of trance history!!

So true, heard it dropped by Simon Posford and Raja Ram during their four set at this year's O.Z.O.R.A.

 

I myself have completely forgotten how utterly amazing this track really is. Although this isn't usually my thing, I thoroughly enjoy some early tracks like Stella, Visions' Of Shiva's Perfect Day, What Time Is Love and Metal Master's Spectrum.

 

I think Yerba Del Diablo is easily every bit as good and crucial as those.
