I totally agree with everyone else. Jans music totally made Miami Vice. His work on that show really made me want to watch the show every week. He always created just the right soundsm and his riffs were to die for. An amazing talent. I head Jan on an interview say how it was a lot of work. Well, Jan, making history usually is, and you established yourself as the king of keyboards my man!
Jan used to come up with some of the best guitar riffs on the keytar. I love all the stuff he did with jeff beck and mclaughlin. Those were the golden years for jan.

"Gina" Rules. Buy the Whole CD.
Jan Hammer is a Genius, along to Prince, todd rundgren etc. anyone who says the 80's sucked, is too young.

I wish directors would hire real musicians like Jan more often, the results seem to be pretty obvious.

I still have this album on vinyl! MIami Vice would have been a fairly ordinary cop show without this wonderful music.

Its an incredibly powerful theme tune, and was just perfect for the era.
Top props Jan :)
