Kenny Loggins and Messina

Jim Messina was working as an independent record producer for Columbia Records in 1970. That was when he was introduced to Loggins, then a little-known singer-songwriter who was signed to ABC-Dunhill.

The duo recorded a number of Kenny Loggins’s compositions in Jim Messina’s home living room. With Messina’s help to a six-album contract, Columbia signed Loggins.

Recording began in earnest for Loggins’s debut album, with Messina as the producer.

Besides providing rehearsal space, equipment, and amps, Jim Messina worked long hours with Loggins making him purchase an electric guitar for his debut album.

He also assembled The Kenny Loggins Band by summoning bassist, Larry Sims, and drummer Merel Bregante, violinist/multireedist Al Garth and multireedist Jon Clarke.

Therefore, the full name of their first album was Kenny Loggins with Jim Messina Sittin’ In.

But Clive Davis intervened and said, “You know, I think you’d be making a mistake if you guys didn’t take this opportunity. Things like this only happen once in a lifetime.”
