[quote=TechEmporium]Awesome; very well-made. This was also a mini-boss song in Sonic 3 (without the Sonic & Knuckles expansion).[/quote]
Actually, if I remember correctly there was a different miniboss song in standalone Sonic 3; when you added the S&K expansion to make it Sonic 3K this theme (more win) replaced the older theme (less win) in the Sonic 3 levels.
Either way, love this one. Good cover!

It seems that you're right on this one. I played through the game & I found out what threw me off; the mini-boss theme in Hydrocity Zone is the same as the boss theme. :P
But yeah; it's still a good rendition of the Sonic & Knuckles mini-boss theme.

Actually, this song is in the Sonic 3 sound data bank, and you can hear it during gameplay. Try this out, the next time you get the chance:
In Hydrocity Zone, when you fight Dr. Eggman/Robotnik, stay under water until the music switches to the song that alerts you when you are about to drown. Then, jump out of the water, and this music should play instead. This was a weird glitch me and my brothers found back in 1994, when the game was released.
And also, Awesome cover, Nintendude! One of the best that I've heard.
Well that's odd. O.o I'll have to try that one. You were right Tech! Now the question is... why did they use the crappy original miniboss music instead of this epic one?

Because The Sonic Team was also working on Sonic & Knuckles at the same time as Sonic 3. It's safe to assume that Sonic & Knuckles was being used as a test base for certain things involving Sonic 3 (including the expansion cartridge idea & some music/character/story development).

They were planning on releasing the two in one cartridge as a single, but due to the expense of producing a cartridge with its technical capabilities and time constraints they faced to release a new Sonic game in time for the holiday season, they split it up into two games.
If you check the manual for Sonic 3, there are some enemies printed in it that only appear in S&K since the manual is finished before the game.
