The music used in the television series was initially merely the result of creative decisions made by the production team, but with the immense popularity of the show (and the proven impact of scenes featuring contemporary tracks, highlighted by the reception given to the "In The Air Tonight" scene), the process soon became influenced by record companies eager to have their artists featured on the show.

  • The music used in the television series was initially merely the result of creative decisions made by the production team, but with the immense popularity of the show (and the proven impact of scenes featuring contemporary tracks, highlighted by the reception given to the "In The Air Tonight" scene), the process soon became influenced by record companies eager to have their artists featured on the show. The popularity of the music used led to the release of three soundtrack albums, Miami Vice, Miami Vice II and Miami Vice III, the first of which was a huge success and reached #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart. Musicians would clamour to have their songs used in the series, occasionally arranging with the production team to have a new track appear ahead of its commercial release, hoping to increase interest. The situation reached a point where some acts would compose and record tracks especially for use on the show. Often these songs were featured exclusively in the episodes in which they were used and on the associated soundtrack albums. "You Belong To The City" by Glenn Frey, "When The Rain Comes Down" by Andy Taylor and "Help Me Through The Night" by Phil Perry & Tim Truman were all recorded exclusively for the show, among others.
