Kenny Loggins
Kenny Loggins' career began as a staff writer with a
music publisher for $100 a week. In 1970, Kenny met Jim Messina who was
impressed with several tunes Kenny wrote for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
Although Messina initially intended to produce Kenny as a solo artist,
the two formed their own band. Through most of the 70s, Loggins and Messina
amassed two platinum and five gold albums, worldwide super stardom, and
a distinguished list of classic hits such as "Danny's Song,"
"Love Song," "Your Mama Don't Dance," "Vahevela"
and many more. The pair parted ways in 1976 and it wasn't long before
Kenny's star as a solo artist began to rise.
Kenny Loggins' first three solo albums, "Celebrate Me Home,"
"Nightwatch" and "Keep The Fire" all went platinum.
In 1980, "What A Fool Believes," which he co-authored with Michael
McDonald, garnered a Grammy for Song of the Year. The following year "This
is It" took the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal. In his 1981 double album
"Alive," Kenny gave fans their first taste of his sensational
stage show.
In 1984 Kenny Loggins won Japan's International Artists Award and in 1985
his self-produced album "Vox Humana" was certified gold. In
that same year "Footloose" was nominated for an Academy Award.
His 1991 album, "Leap of Faith," spawned four Top 5 Adult Contemporary
singles.
As the father of four children, Kenny saw the need for a record that didn't
"sing down" to children, one that both parents and children
could enjoy together. He realized that he might be the one to make such
a record when he noticed that "Leap of Faith" was capturing
the attention of young children as well as adults. "Return To Pooh
Corner" was certified gold in 1994 and nominated for a 1995 Grammy
in the Best Children's Album category. It was named one of the best children's
albums at the National Association of Parenting Publications annual music
awards.
In 1997, Kenny Loggins recorded the Academy Award nominated "For
The First Time," which was featured in the film, "One Fine Day."
His album, "Unimaginable Life," released in July 1997, shares
its title with the book he wrote with his wife Julia. In the book they
illustrate their personal love story with selections from more than 70
personal journals.
