Miami Vice Theme

 

Miami Vice Theme

The song "Miami Vice Theme" aired in September 1984 created by Jan Hammer. It peaked at the number 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. In 1986, it won Grammy Awards for "Best Instrumental Composition" and "Best Pop Instrumental Performance"

There are at least 3 different versions:

  • The original version that aired with the pilot episode, that only contains the percussion and keyboards, without the guitars.
  • The newer version aired the next season.
  • The full radio airplay version, that includes the tv version at the end.

    It is also nostalgically remembered as the song played during the first few three-point competitions at the NBA All-Star weekend, including the one in 1986 where Larry Bird famously walked into the locker room and told all his competitors they were playing for second place.
