The other Rick DiFonzo piece in this mini-flourish of identified Primetime tracks is "Surf Your Own Wave." I'm not sure why this one didn't get used more on the show since it fits perfectly with football highlights (much better than it does with surfing), but oh well. In addition to its official BRg album, Surf Your Own Wave is contained on a 2015 compilation album titled Surf's Up: Surf & Beach Rock Jams. This album is available on both Apple Music (linked) and Amazon Music. Again, thanks to Godzfire for ID'ing this one.

Unknown Song #40 is probably my favorite song yet to be identified on Primetime. It's energetic, edgy, and fun, and works well with sports highlights. It's likely not a well remembered track, however, since it was used sparingly during its mere 3 years of service. US #40's most memorable use was probably its last: the 1999 NFC Championship game where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers nearly upset the St. Louis Rams 6-5 before giving up a late TD catch to Ricky Proehl. Unfortunately, I couldn't find that NFL Primetime highlight anywhere, so here's a different one from US #40's first season of use.
