Default What was the best/worst remixes ever heard in clubs/radio?

Folks:

I asked this question before, but I felt the responses this time around should be entertaining!

What was the best/worst remixes heard in clubs/radio?

For example:

The best remix I ever heard was Shep Pettibone's remix of Let No Man Put Asunder - First Choice

The worst remix was the 1994 Unidisc release of Candi Staton - Young Hearts Run Free

In 1982, I was @ the Paradise Garage and Francois K played his remixes of "Beat The Street" by Sharon Redd and my former, classmate "D-Train" - Keep On for the first time. The response from the crowd in attendance was festive!

Part II of this question is:

Have you ever heard a DJ spun so awful, that you were either by yourself or among your friends and responded?

Tell us about those horrible mixes and who was the DJ?

Extra credit:

Tell us about the mixes where the original versions should've been left alone.

For example:

The extended version of The Groove Line - Heatwave when the original version on the 7" was good enough.

One of the worst remixes I've heard the last years is the one Jam & Spoon made of Giorgio Moroder's Chase - they shouldn't have touched that track...

Default Best/Worst Remixes in a club or on Radio

OK Folks,

Many views, one response and I'm sure that we have many recordings in our collection. Also, I'm sure that many remixes or remixers passed us by as lousy ones. Let me know your opinions because I'm sure that other are interested just like yours truly. :o

Not sure if this counts as a remix really but the 12" of Sun Sun Sun by Ja KKi is a three lane pile up.

A man walked into the doctors, he said "I've hurt my arm in several places.
The doctor said "well don't go there any more"
