Dadrian Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 That Smuggler’s Blues beat is actually from the Roland TR-808 (not the LinnDrum) if anybody cares. I call that cue “Smuggler’s Bridge”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hey all. Just got this cool book. Thought you music makers might like it. It doesn't include Hammer, but lots of the predecessors! Bruce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 @Crocketttposted this kindly - it’s a great piece first heard in “One Eyed Jack” and again two years later in “Streetwise” I believe. Crockettt is right it’s also the basis for the piece in “Lombard” at the end of the first Season. Thankyou for posting these Crockettt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 @Crockettt posted this on his great You Tube channel the original version of “Crockett’s Theme” which appeared in the early Season 1 episode “Hit List” (aka Calderone’s Return”). Has a lot of elements of the theme from “Stone’s War”, “Cuba Libre” And “Child’s Play” but some quite different touches that we hear in early Season 1. Thankyou Crockettt pal. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the CD maxi (with 4 tracks total) on eBay many years ago. The Crockett’s Theme “remix” is more like a bad cover, if memory serves me correctly, by Ben Liebrand. https://www.discogs.com/release/758540-Jan-Hammer-Tubbs-And-Valerie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swan Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) Hello @Crockettt, thank you kindly for your work. I've been looking for a track that was, to my knowledge, used mostly in S1. It's a very simple, I think pan flute, theme, usually played when they showed Colombia, Bogota or similar locales. I can't recall the episode when it first played, I can try to find it if you don't know which track I mean. Thanks in advance.

Swan Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 1 hour ago, Miami Beau said: Is it this one your referring to? No, it's much more melodic, and less eerie. It's usually very short and, if memory serves me well, it played in Calderon's Return and is also heard in one of the Golden Triangle episodes.

airtommy Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) On 6/12/2018 at 6:15 AM, Daytona74 said: Here's another cue that would have been good for a released track of its own... I think it was used to the most effect in "Evan", where it underscored Evan's emotionally volatile character as a man on the brink... This is one of my Top 5 favorite Hammer tunes. I liked this Youtube comment: "slow burn" such a great track to perhaps the best MV episode. jan hammer is just amazing. who would have ever come up with this type of music to this type of show. electronic, slow-burn, almost a southeast Indian quality to it and then those surreal arpeggios. who would think to play music like this to an action/drama set in miami? and yet, you can't imagine one without the other. pure genius.

goozer Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I've always wished for an official release of "Guzman's Vibe", not only because it's such a great tune, but also because the protagonist and I share the same surname and so I can have an "official" theme. Maybe Dadrian will bless us with an amazing cover version one day... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) @Crockettt posted this on his You Tube channel. A great version and clear , an unreleased cue from “Give a Little, Take a Little”, “Payback”, “Cuba Libre”, “By Hooker By Crook”, “Child’s Play” and “A Bullet for Crockett”. A very similar version was released by Jan Hammer in 2002 on his Miami Vice - The Complete Collection works.

Matt5 Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) A great theme and piece from Jan Hammer from “Theresa” filmed late fall 1986. A lot of this episode was filmed at the North Shore Medical Centre in West Little River| Pinewood section of Miami just North of NE79th St — I was there in March 2023.
