Ginga do Mane

There are many versions on youtube.
Players go to lots of liberties with rhythms and notes.
Anybody knows which verson is the closest to original?
Not that I am trying to do it exactly as Jacob did, but
just for the reference...........

Consider the original recording by Jacob from "Primas e Bordões" ('62).
One would think the sheet music would reflect his intent. It's included
in one of the most striking "music plus 1" recordings ever with the
folio Tocando Com Jacob (pub. Irmãos Vitale, 2006). It inclores for
both C and Bb instruments, and the recordings are the *original* studio
recordings done with Jacob on Chorinhos e Chorões ('61) and "Primas"
(above). Two versions of each cut, one with Jacob and one without. He
himself took the "without" versions home, and worked on his own
performance, later adding it for the final release recording.
BME has it:
Amazing study materials and and an amazing historical artificact. I
friend who had it pleaded with me to buy a copy immediately, as he
considered it the center of the known universe.

Rio last year. Nice book that has a lot of charts - including " A
Ginga do Mane" in it & well worth picking up. My (former) choro group
uses the book extensively and it is a worthwhile investment. There is
a PDF version of it floating around the internet as well.
