Yes, terrific news. Let's hope for a high quality release from La La Land or other labels, with extensive liner notes about Truman's work on MV. I have my own 40 minute CD with several of TT's MV selections, brilliant stuff indeed. New tracks in the MV style would of course be nice, but not INSTEAD of the 1988/89 tracks. How about a double CD? ;-)

I guess US TV showed all 5 seasons??
Hammer's main theme was featured in the 5th season as well, but all the rest of the music was Truman only, and he did not base his music on Hammer's themes, but it certainly was in the Hammer mood. At times it sounded even better than Hammer, IMO.

Yes, for the final season, Tim Truman did the entire score, but he did not use any of Jan Hammer's themes like Crockett's theme,etc.
Tim's score was a more hard rock type, and he utilised many times, the great guitar solo's!
But he also used a great selection of synth sounds, more ambient and less bright than Jan Hammer's selections. I guess his score sort of fitted the ending of the 80s and the dawn of the 90s, and most amazingly, it sounds just as fresh as it did back then.
You wouldn't think that his score was done in 1989, it was just done superbly.
In particular the music for the final episode was truly awe inspiring, and memorable, and really was an emotional piece. I will never forget that moment, when Crockett & Tubbs shake hands over the Ferrari before leaving for the final time while Tim's amazing score plays in the background. Truly one of the best scenes ever in TV show history.
Its sad that we no longer get these types of scenes, where the music elevates the scene to new levels.
I hope one day Miami Vice comes back for a few one off episodes to show what happened to the characters. That show was far superior to anything we have today.

I agree, I'm rewatching season 1 -- it's bloody amazing. I like the use of the songs, for example, in "Calderone's return part 2", Russ Ballard - "In The Night" playing over Tubbs racing to Crockett's home gives me the goosebumps every time I see it.
Any news on Truman's music? I wonder if La-La are involved?

Hey, you know that bumping this almost gave me a heart-attack? I actually thought it WAS coming.
No, not much news regarding this the last few years. It's my number 1 wanted score!

Why on earth doesn't Universal want this? What do they have to lose?
