Apparently this came out late 2009, loving this track (and a few others from these releases).

Yes, there are two volumes' worth of "Retro Remix Revue" out there. The guys who put these together went on to do some work with Lab Zero Games (Skullgirls). But these two albums rank very high in my personal favs.
In fact, I was fortunate enough to meet these two guys at their recording studio when they were finishing vol.2, during E3 '09. I was with Don (VGMOnline), it was a great time. They got a bunch of great Hollywood session musicians in to do the albums. I think that of all the versions of Gerudo Valley in the world, theirs is easily the best. Best guitar, best trumpet, best percussion, hits the nail on the head.
I had hoped they'd do a third volume, but I doubt it'll come to pass.
That is so random Ramza - although the world is small I have found....
I cannot find any info on these albums. Do you happen to have per track musician info , or know where I can I find?
I went on vacation and brought these tracks with me...one of my favorite VGM related releases in recent years.
Thanks
It's all on vgmdb! see "notes" sections
vol.1 -- http://vgmdb.net/album/10191

Shoot of course...thanks...wow I recognize a few names, Greg Bissonette, Scott Henderson? Wow...top players involved...and yet these CDs have very little availability , (first one I could only find on YouTube). I wonder if they ran into any challenges paying for licenses etc
Thanks again!
