Played a pilot on Miami Vice acting out the lyrics in his song. And it played though out the show. I think it may have been in 2 parts.

Smuggler's Blues
Episode aired Feb 1, 1985

Someone in law enforcement is murdering drug dealers and their families in cold blood. To find the culprit, Crockett and Tubbs go undercover and travel to Colombia with a laid-back pilot to pose as dealers.
Glenn Frey, the cornerstone of The Eagles, plays Jimmy Cole, a guitar-playing, burned out Vietnam veteran pilot with a seaplane and connections in Cartegena, Colombia. The three guys travel into the South American 'No Man's Land' to hunt for information on the killer(s) of rival drug dealers and their families. It's the nature of the business to pull a gun--even on a cop--and all to the raw and raucous sounds of 'Smuggler's Blues'.
