Spotlight on Kenny Loggins


This is the easiest blog I've ever written. I've listened to Kenny Loggins all my life. have all his albums, play them all
the time. His music centers me. whenever I need to get back on track, his music always does the trick.

For me, there are 4 parts to Mr. Loggins music legacy;
His origin (Jim Messina era)
His re-birth (Celebrat Me Home/Whenever I call you friend era) ,
His journey (Heart to Heart - back to Avalon)
His present (Blue Sky Riders)

I tried to find songs that maybe some haven't heard. That was difficult because he's so popular. so I had to rely on
well known hits.

Whenever I call you friend by Kenny Loggins (with Stevie Nicks). This is a duet featuring Stevie Nicks (I plan to do a different post on Fleetwood Mac)



Something that many may not remember is that Kenny Loggins was one of the premier singers on "We are the World".
a record known world-wide.

Of course i was shocked and disappointed to hear that sony records has ended their music relationship (how weird is that ??)
but glad to hear that he continues to share his gifts with the world.
please visit his fan site at      KennyLoggins.com

If you ever get a chance to get "Kenny Loggins live at the Redwoods" - DVD.
I guarentee you will not be dissapointed.

I know there are many other songs I could have picked. Until we meet again, here's one for the road....
