BE FREE ~ LOGGINS & MESSINA Live: Sittin' in Again at Santa Barbara Bowl

I LOVE PRODUCTIONS LIKE THIS JUST SUPERB / VIDEO DONE IN KEN BURNS STYLE / ORIGINAL AUDIO PRODUCTION OUTSTANDING, WHOMEVER ENGINEER WISE PUT THIS SHOW TOGETHER, BRAVO.
Live: Sittin' in Again at Santa Barbara Bowl is a live compilation album (and eleventh overall release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in late 2005. It was recorded in Santa Barbara at one of the first performances of their reunion tour. The physical CD features thirteen tracks, however an online download-only version includes five additional tracks: "Sailin' the Wind", "Long Tail Cat", "Thinking of You", "Be Free", and "You Need a Man" which can also be heard (and seen) on the DVD release of the concert.
Loggins and Messina is an American rock-pop duo consisting of Kenny Loggins and Jim Messina, who achieved their success in the early to mid-1970s. Among their well-known songs are "Danny's Song", "House at Pooh Corner", and "Your Mama Don't Dance". After selling more than 16 million records and becoming one of the leading musical duos of the 1970s,[2] Loggins and Messina broke up in 1976. Although Messina would find only limited popularity following the breakup, Loggins went on to further success in the 1980s. In 2005 and again in 2009, Loggins and Messina reformed for tours in the United States.

This song is a classic. The instrumental portion is beautiful. Yes...I'm a child of the 60s and an old fart now...but his music can bring me to tears. Whenever I get down I listen to this song and life makes sense again. Thanks so much for the wonderful talent that made this music possible.

[@TommyGallagher]

Yes I agree 100% with you, this was such a Outstanding Live Production. The Musicianship Level, what is Being Performed Live in Real Time no Fluff tools, Yep these were the Days

[@magikoflove]

Loggins & Messina have been my absolute favorite group since I first heard them back in 1971, I was all of 20 years old. Their body of work stands unmatched by anyone! Everything you need know of life can be found in their music, you only need listen. Chris Love

[@TakeTheRide]

This is the most beautiful song they ever wrote and performed. An absolute masterpiece!

[@TommyGallagher]

Yes, this performance was just outstanding. Thank you for commenting on a few. 😎🎸

[@justsomeguy820]

Mother Lode was extraordinary and this song was foremost.

[@TakeTheRide]

@@TommyGallagher You're welcome. I'm a cello player. I was graced to have an ear to hear. Enjoyed.

[@TakeTheRide]

@@justsomeguy820 yes I really love the Motherload album. It's my favorite. Do you ever noticed that when you listen to something you remember what other albums came out with it, at that time, years ago? Song memories bring up more song memories.

[@pamcampbell6991]

I've always loved this song since I first heard it in the early 70's in Vermont. As fate would have it I moved to California and worked in Montecito at a pet hospital and got acquainted with Moose and Duke, the Loggins dogs. Such a great guy and animal lover.

[@TommyGallagher]

Woof 🐶🐶

[@tommyz5189]

Love seeing them back together. Very unique sound.

[@denisehoward177]

Would have loved to have been there..they still sound great! Jim has an excellent voice. Will work towards seeing them (if only separately) in the future! I like their Full Sail album too, & Kenny's Outside At The Redwoods.

[@elainetorres919]

It's on my bucket list...can you give me some lessons on the mandolin?
