Though the song is from the 80's I remember distinctly Howard Jones' "Things Can Only Get Better" playing during pre-game warmups in Game 7 of the 1994 NBA Finals.
Burning Down the House - Talking Heads I believe in the Mid 80's, early Akeem and Sampson days the squad came out to Rockit by Herbie Handcock
Not completely on topic, but Ezra Charles is still out there playing in Houston. The Rockets should have him and his band come out and play a set when they wear throwbacks this year.
For below video material you can hear a song I believe used also by the Rockets. Anyone knows the name? <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/zGC4yGkc5xA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Wild Thang by Tone Loc - i believe it was the first hip hop song to hit #1 it also used the sample of Jamie's Cryin' from Van Halen I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=387ZDGSKVSg
This is the one that always comes to mind for me. I can't think of one good reason why it isn't the song during starting lineups today.
I was looking for this mix forever. I just found it a few months ago: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/iX7qXXXyyFs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Does anyone know what the name of the music used in the rockets 1995 championship tape end credits is?
Wasn't played in the arena, but I remember seeing a sweet montage during the championship years set to Rob Zombie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0E0ynyIUsg
I think its this one. http://www.amazon.com/Double-Clutch-Houston-Championship-Official/dp/6303521363 The new ones price are a little out of my price range. (starting at $168.00)
