Finale is the second live double album (and eighth overall release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in early 1977. Tracks on the album are from performances while touring in 1975 and 1976.[1]
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 see what money could be made before the pair faded from the public mind and in that light it can be considered a Columbia 'corporate' release, rather than one intended by artists Kenny Loggins or Jim Messina.
This was the last album by Kenny Loggins shortly before his first solo album, Celebrate Me Home, was released April 1977.
