Forgive my ignorance, but are midi-files legally available to be purchased anyway? Presumably they are covered by copyright restrictions.

Most MIDI-based sheet music is freely and legally available.

I doubt it. They would be covered by copyright, but I mean seriously how many people want to hear a super terrible version of a song? I found some websites like this, but I very much doubt that it is authorized by the rights holders.

I'm sure they all get permission to host those on their website, just as ProgArchives gets permission from all copyright holders to host the songs on this website.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

Midi files are medium for carrying music data, just like a CD or cassette - so they are not copyright in themselves only their content. Therefore if the content is copyright then the midifile is copyright.
 
A midi file of Al Di Meola's Golden Dawn would be copyright however badly played.
 
To be 100% pedantic, they are all unauthorised/unlicensed versions and are thus illegal.
What?

I am mostly interesting in a midifile with the drums and the bass actually Smile
 
I really love Jacoīs playing on this song.

Good luck with that because you won't find it here.
 
The best you can hope for in any Midifile on the internet is some amateur playing the bassline on a keyboard while wearing boxing gloves - you will never find any midifile recording of Jaco's playing.
What?

I did a websearch and found some of his bassparts as midifiles.  Nothing similar to "The Golden Dawn Suite"
 
Did he do other songs with similar bassgrooves?
