I'm not done writing about new NFL Primetime songs, but pretty much everything left to post that's new or unidentified is from New Primetime (i.e., the 2019-present ESPN+ edition of the show). Unfortunately, my YouTube posts of New Primetime stuff don't get a lot of views. The videos with highlights from the '80s and '90s—the classic era of NFL Primetime—definitely seem to get more action. Some of those clips, however, were not the best quality (especially the ones from 1988). GodzFire's acquisition of that huge lot of early NFL Primetime episodes last spring created an opportunity to post better quality videos with some of the songs from that era. I was originally planning on posting those after posting (most) everything from New Primetime, but I kinda feel a need to try and rejuice my channel first—getting closer to the views I was getting last spring-to-summer at least. As an experiment, I'm going to post a few "Higher Quality" clips of older tracks before getting back to New Primetime stuff. I plan on going back-and-forth between the two post types (or something like that) afterward. I hope you enjoy it!
The first-HQ-post belong to Zack Laurence's "New Prospect." New Prospect was one of the staples of the first two years of NFL Primetime. It was used seemingly every regular-season week from Week 5 of 1987 (or Week 6 if you count the cancelled Week 3) up through the end of 1988. This time, the included game highlight is the Dolphins' visit to Veterans Stadium to play the Eagles in '87. The contest featured two star quarterbacks, Dan Marino & Randall Cunningham, albeit playing for middling teams that would not make the playoffs that year. There's also a nice production blooper at the beginning of the video. Have fun watching!
