Finale (album)
Encyclopedia
Finale is the second live double album
(their 8th release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina
, released in early 1977 (see 1977 in music
).
The duo had parted by the time this album was released, and it was considered by some purely as a profit-taking move intended to get what money could be made before the pair faded from the public mind. In that light it can be considered a Columbia 'corporate' release, rather than one intended by artists Kenny Loggins or Jim Messina.
