Jan Hammer - Trudy's Theme

Why this track wasn't included on any of Jan's Miami Vice "collections" truly baffles me. This is a great track (IMO) that should've made the cut. This version (like many others on You Tube) sounds like it was "lifted" off the DVD using Computer Application Studio software:

It was actually ripped from "The Last Frontier" video' date=' which has yet to appear on DVD.goozer :cool:[/quote']That's right, the old VHS of stuff from Jan Hammer that included this and another music cue (that I can't remember off the top of my head) from Miami Vice that doesn't appear anywhere else. Interesting...

Wow. To me, this is brand new news and actually really exciting. I'm glad this resurfaced. So now we have Crockett's, Valerie's, and Trudy's theme, as well as Castillo's (kind of, I don't think it's called 'Castillo's Theme'). The Last Frontier, any more information on that?

"The Last Frontier" is a NASA video set to jan's music cues. It's available on Amazon and elsewhere, but only on VHS (as far as I know)...

The last I spoke with Dadrian he was about halfway finished on a cue he calls "Stan & Larry" You can hear this tune while Larry is sparring with Bobby Sykes in "Down For The Count" Pt. 1I also remember Rick Leon's version of Castillo's theme. Think I'll wait for Dadrian's version.

We can hear this cue for the first time in "Made For Each Other"

I also remember Rick Leon's version of Castillo's theme. Think I'll wait for Dadrian's version.

We can hear this tune in Golden Triangle part.2 & Viking Bikers From Hell.

This is correct.There also is one non MIAMI VICE track. "Finale" is from the JAN HAMMER soundtrack, "Secret Admirer". It sounds like a MIAMI VICE track if you didn't know it came from the film.-COOP

GinaI just heard Gina's theme again tonight (the original link is blocked) and - wow.

Conjures up thoughts of astronomy, cathedral like '80s malls. A lot of yin energy. Jan's synth mastery is peerless. If I didn't have to go to bed, I'd start watching the series again.
