Hot 80s Nights!: 'Hot Summer Nights' by Miami Sound Machine (1986)

Welcome back to Hot 80s Nights!, now that the hot days and nights of Summer are behind us we forge ahead with Hot Summer Nights by American group Miami Sound Machine. Miami Sound Machine was originally formed in 1975 by keyboardist Emile Estefan Jr. and was known then as Miami Latin Boys. The band was shortly joined by singers Gloria Estefan and her cousin Merci Navarro Murciano and renamed Miami Sound Machine. Hot Summer Nights can be found on the Top Gun Soundtrack as track number 6, which was released in 1986 along with the film. 80s movie soundtracks always seem to contain lots of gems that could use some more airtime.
