VinceLombard Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I've always liked Crocket's Theme, it's a well known piece, and I know it often plays somewhere i the background but to actually find a good scene where it plays for some time and you can actually hear it well....??? hmmmm....I remeber it plays when crocket goes to jail for not disclosing the his informant (cant remember the episode name), and plays somewhat "modified" version in Angelina, where she explodes with the baby in the car (riged with tnt by Leguazamo lol)...Any other scenes and epoisodes anybody can remeber?

COOPER&BURNETT Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 yeah' date=' there was a good use of it in Child's Play when he's driving back to Miami after seeing Billy[/quote']A similar version of that piece in CHILD'S PLAY can be heard on the 12" extended single of CROCKETT'S THEME near the end of the song.

Administrators timm525 Posted June 16, 2010 Administrators Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 How about in Buddies in the office with Robbie when he was trying to find out where the girl was? Was that Crockett's theme or another one I'm thinking of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceLombard Posted June 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 can't remember that one, but I liked tha opening "Soda" song lolHow about in Buddies in the office with Robbie when he was trying to find out where the girl was?

ViceFanMan Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Don't ask me why they stuck it in the episode at the points they did, because it doesn't really fit--but Crockett's Theme plays during some scenes of 3rd season's "Cuba Libre."But, I guess I don't really care where they stick the song in...I LOVE it and it's one of my favorite aspects or parts of the show! It was very popular here back when, but I believe it went to #1 in Europe around 1987. :thumbsup:My favorite spot it plays is around one of the first times it's introduced--during the 2-part "Calderone's Return", where Sonny is talking to Caroline at the lighthouse--where he has her and Billy stashed for safety while he and the Vice team are trying to find the assassin. Awesome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 It was played in SMUGGLER'S BLUES, and GIVE A LITTLE, TAKE A LITTLE too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViceFanMan Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 It was played in SMUGGLER'S BLUES' date=' and GIVE A LITTLE, TAKE A LITTLE too.[/quote']Oh yeah..."Smuggler's Blues" is one of my all-time favorite episodes. I should've remembered that one! ;)I didn't really care for "Give A Little, Take A Little"...but the song definitely fits with parts of the episode about Crockett in jail for refusing to name his informant in court.

VinceLombard Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Yeah I love this scene, probablly the best spot with this songCrockett's Theme plays during some scenes of 3rd season's "Cuba Libre."But, I guess I don't really care where they stick the song in...I LOVE it and it's one of my favorite aspects or parts of the show!

ViceFanMan Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Crockett's Theme also plays in a few scenes during 3rd season's "By Hooker By Crook."I always loved this episode and thought the song and everything was perfect...since Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith were "together" in real life at the time! Although they had been married once before in 1976 and divorced, they had reconciled in the mid-1980's. They weren't actually married again at the time of "By Hooker By Crook" but finally did marry a 2nd time a couple years later in 1989.Two years after "MV" went off the air, in 1991, Don and Melanie starred together in the drama movie "Paradise"--also starring a very young Elijah Wood! In 1996 Johnson and Griffith divorced a 2nd time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voodoo Vice Dealer Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 It also appeared in Stone's War, when Crockett sees his new Ferrari Testarossa, I think it is one of the best ''Crockett's Theme'' appearances in the series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Payback" from Season 2 -saw the theme used quite extensively - only episode it was used in Season 2 I believe!?

Vincent Hanna Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 It's a shame Crockett's theme wasn't used in more episodes or atleast in more fitting situations(Like why is played in Cuba Libre?). But we did atleast get one iconic usage in "Hit List". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
