I was a little disappointed with some of the transitions, and I was dying to hear an authentic fiddle in there somewhere take the main theme and do something marvelous with it; I feel the piece lacks something as a result, and the ending doesn't feel quite right, but that's just my personal take on the matter.
A good piece, to be sure 😊

Arranged by Glyn R Brown
I've really no idea how you keep faithfull to a 3 voice sid tune, and then turn it into such an extravagant orchestral masterpiece - but this is about as good an example as you're likely to find. Opening the tune is that perfectly suited vocal and then we get thrust into the main theme itself. From here you can clearly appreciate the time and effort gone into making this - it's just so professional and sounds spot on to the original (despite the fact that there's hundreds of other instruments giving it 'what for' in the background). For me, that's the magic. There's nothing left of any original backing - it's just been completely replaced with an authentic orchestral score… only the lead tune is recognisable. I don't know if that makes sense, but I know one thing… it sounds awesome.
Top marks to Mr. Brown - nice to have you back.
