Frequently Asked Questions

I liked the Miami Vice soundtracks, which albums should I be looking for?
"Escape From Television", "Snapshots", "Miami Vice I" (Music from the Television Series "Miami Vice"), "Miami Vice II" and "Miami Viceo III" is the complete list of albums, all released on both vinyl and CD. If you are really up to it, you might search for those two flexi-discs that were included with Keyboard Magazines. However, the back-issues are all sold-out.

What albums are similar in style to the Miami Vice soundtracks?
"Finale" on the "Secret Admirer" album is very much like Miami Vice. The other albums are not quite the same in style as the Miami Vice albums, but if you don't like the fusion and jazz stuff, you probably will still like Jan's "Beyond The Mind's Eye", "Drive" and "The Early Years". "Drive" is slightly jazz oriented but not exactly that.
