Geert's Place

Watching Miami Vice again, made me think of all the great tunes that arose in the 80’s.  Some of them were completely synthesizer based, and they will forever have a special place in my heart and memories. For example this one :

But the list is way too long to even start writing it .. Some guys were true pioneers, like Jan Hammer, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Harold Faltermeyer, Kraftwerk, Mike Oldfield etc etc..  Some of my personal favorites :

• Jan Hammer – Crockett’s Theme
• Harold Faltermeyer – Axel F.
• Jean-Michel Jarre – Magnetic Fields Pt 2
• Vangelis – To The Unknown Man
• …….

I recently started watching Miami Vice again (no, not the movie, but the series from the 80’s) – and I came to realize that I LOVE those 80’s and 90’s TV series 🙂

Miami Vice is just one example.. There are plenty of others; some more famous than others. Like for instance Married With Children, Allo Allo, The A-Team, MacGuyver, Knight Rider, Magnum PI, Friends, Happy Days, ALF, Battlestar Galactica, V, etc etc …

For some strange reason I still find them a lot more appealing than the full-of-FX, modern type of series. With one exception maybe… I love The Walking Dead 😀
Can’t wait for the 3rd season to finally become available on Blu-Ray !
