Overview

From the jazzy rendition of the SMB3 main theme (track 1) to the credits theme with a Spanish flair (track 4), the arranged part of this album succeeds in keeping things interesting. What's even more interesting is that the "Smoke on the Water" riff appears in track 2 at the 2½ minute mark! Track 5 brings listeners back down to Earth with what sounds like a recording of somebody playing through eight worlds of SMB3 edited down to 10 minutes.

The word "Fantastic" is misspelled "Fantasic" on the album.
