    Still love the old songs as well. Just bought a copy of his first solo album on vinyl. A classic...

      @@workernick2485 Loggins never reached superstar status because he would have had to be more commercial than he was. He once said that the only reason why his solo hits tended to be from movie soundtracks was because the movies called for a more light-hearted and aggressive approach.

      @@RocStarr913 He is such an interesting act, I read his book. I think that is an interesting quote you cite and certainly a lot of his top hits were from sound tracks, but other solid hits were not (Whenever I Call You Friend, Heart to Heart, Celebrate Me Home). While some of his stuff was commercial, some very diverse (R&B, tad of country, soft rock) and he certainly did push the envelope at times. His run from L&M to his platinum children's album in 1994 is filled with many hits people don't realize he was involved with. 1997's Unimaginable Life did him in - that marriage to Julia moved him towards new age stuff and turned off a lot of people - his label dropped him before he could complete his next album. From there? legacy act with a lot of great hits. He never made it internationally - that would have brought in a lot of additional money. Check his Billboard hit total vs acts that tour the world like Bryan Adams and he stacks up in many ways.

      With songs for movie soundtracks, that was the case. For songs for his own albums, that wasn’t quite so consistent. He had said back during the time of Top Gun was that it was because he’d always take a different, more lighthearted, harder approach with the songs he did for movies because he believed the movies called for that.
