Story
This piece follows the original arrangement pretty close, though it's got some extra instruments and and live feel, with some improvisations.

It was originally recorded as a medley on Mutherpluckin' B's album 8-Bit Democracy, available at http://lidbjork.homelinux.org/nintendo

It's a shame. Making it live would have been great, if not for all the bum notes and REALLY loose timing. Sorry...
I like the original sid, this is a bit average though.
What Boz said. I mean, some parts of it are really good, but there're some serious technical knock-outs in here. Shame, though...
Perfect! It's live stuff! From this so beautiful. Not mechanical. I like him very much.
5 star ;)
Argh
Holds more promise than what it delivers. The timing is way loose, even -I- can notice that. That lead from 0:25 just shreds my ears to pieces. The second half is a lot more enjoyable with all the improvs. The ending is too abrupt and out-of-place.
Hurts!
Quite good, but there are too many instruments competing of attention. And not all jamming is good just because it's jamming...
Okay, timing, etc... But it smells like live. C'mon guys! Some things are sometimes off - but that's the way of things go onstage. Reyn's 'Dayo' is still my #1 - but MPB's is a tasteful, alive, juicy jamtrack and doesn't pretend to be something else.

Very faithful to the spirit of the original, though it's got a lot of competition in the Deyo stakes! Sounds very live! I'm giving a red for sheer effort, plus it sounds like a lot of fun at the recording
