The Heart – The Shape

This record has been crafted into the silhouette of a heart. The heart shape and its meaning has evolved over hundreds of years. Nowadays it means love but before the 13th and 14th centuries it was generally drawn for decorative purposes. People at that time thought of our hearts as books of memory and believed feelings for the beloved were somehow written on your heart.

Miami Vice is an American crime drama television series created by Anthony Yerkovich and produced by Michael Mann for NBC. It stars Don Johnson as James “Sonny” Crockett and Philip Michael Thomas as Ricardo “Rico” Tubbs, two Metro-Dade Police Department detectives working undercover in Miami, Florida. The series ran for five seasons on NBC from September 16, 1984 to June 28, 1989, airing on Friday nights. Unlike traditional police procedurals, Miami Vice drew upon 1980s culture such as contemporary pop and rock music, sports cars (such as the Ferrari Testarossa and Lamborghini Countach), and stylised visuals.
