The Reds is a new wave band whose songs "Waiting for You", "Beat Away" and "Till the End" appeared in the episode "Rites of Passage" of the show Miami Vice.
Notes[]
- The Reds were apparently something of a favorite of Michael Mann's -- three songs from their album Shake Appeal appear in the episode "Rites of Passage", while the band also provided music for the film Band of the Hand, which was produced by Mann, and composed score music for Mann's 1986 Hannibal Lecter movie Manhunter.
- In addition to The Reds' music, Manhunter additionally featured Miami Vice guest stars Garcelle Beauvais (from "Give a Little, Take a Little" and "The Maze"), Bill Cwikowski (from "No Exit"), Chris Elliott (from "Down for the Count (Part II)"), Dennis Farina (from "One Eyed Jack", "Lombard" and "World of Trouble"), Kim Griest (from "Nobody Lives Forever"), Michele Shay (from "Theresa" and "Badge of Dishonor"), Bill Smitrovich (from "Brother's Keeper" and "The Prodigal Son") and Jim Zubiena (from "Calderone's Return (Part I)"). Miami Vice regular Michael Talbott also had a small role in the film, although his single scene was deleted from the theatrical cut of the movie.
