A house music mix worth sharing

This mix was recently uncovered on the always great Trackwerk blogsite and normally I would just share this one with you in a random list of other great mixes. However, due to the archival nature of this mix I thought it deserved it's own post to highlight its greatness.
It's a Ministry Of Sound mix circa 1992 when house music was at the peak of its power and the mix was by one of house's founding members-Pal Joey. Some will instantly connect P.J. with the Orb remix of "Little Fluffy Clouds" and its invariable David Mancuso/Loft connotations. It was one hellva track but let's not forget in 1992 Junior Vasquez was still making relevant tracks (under the guise Ellis D on this mix) and P.J. was playing alongside Larry Levan, David Morales, Tony Humphries, and Kenny Carpenter. I gotts say the Robert Owens and Kevin Saunderson really take me back.
