Kenny Loggins is an icon, he has created many memorable songs in the past that we all know and love. He started out in a two-piece band including him and Jim Messina and they have made a staple in the music business, but when Mr. Loggins went solo he continued to blow up the charts and make an impact for all the younger artists out there. He has in my life, most definitely...I tend to emulate him when I sing his songs preferably from the 1997 release "The Unimaginable Life" which has a book attached to the name. My father grew up listening to him and he got me into his music and I'm very pleased to say, I am a fan because this man has passion when he sings...he's one of a kind and so humble[it seems] and he's unique...you can't put him in a box, Mr. Loggins--he'll end up breaking out of it. With his new album, "All Join In" due out in July...Kenny will go back a little because the songs will have a classic feel to them including covers such as the popular "You've Got A Friend In Me" by Randy Newman which was featured in Disney's Pixar's "Toy Story". Though songs that he has written in his past will also be on this album, it will be family-oriented so kids between the ages of 6 and 13 will enjoy it. Kids tend to not be interested in 'old people' music because they like the contemporary things of today but the things of today doesn't have much substance as the things of the past. That's why Mr. Loggins will modernize the songs on his upcoming album, so kids will enjoy it has much as the adults. I know I will because he continues to spew out amazing art and I don't doubt for one second that this album will flop, it will change lives and make people realize what music is all about.
