I'm only after realising that he also covered the Rolling Stones' (Can't Get No) Satisfaction. Another quality SID cover.

This guy's best chiptune he ever done isn't even here. Arguably the best cover of Stairway To Heaven anyone can ever do, let alone an SID chiptune artist like Daglish.

Deathwish II, Last Ninja and Terramex were great. I actually remember meeting Ben at one of the Back in Time events back in 2000. He was a really cool guy in person - very funny, too!

The Last Ninja series easily has the best music on the C64 system :)
