Still Alright: A Memoir

Kenny Loggins, known for his megahit soundtrack themes and high-profile collaborations, tells the fascinating and intimate stories behind his five-decade career as a songwriter and a folk, rock, and pop artist. &nbsp; In a remarkable career, Kenny Loggins has rocked stages worldwide, released twelve platinum albums, and landed hits all over the&nbsp;Billboard&nbsp;charts. His place in music history is marked by a unique gift for collaboration combined with the vision to evolve, adapt, and persevere in an industry that loves to eat its own. Loggins served as a pivotal figure in the folk-rock movement of the early '70s when he paired with former Buffalo Springfield member Jim Messina, recruited Stevie Nicks for the classic duet "Whenever I Call You 'Friend,'" then pivoted to smooth rock in teaming up with Michael McDonald on their back-to-back Grammy-winning hits "What a Fool Believes" and "This Is It" (a seminal moment in the history of what would come to be known as Yacht Rock). In the '80s, Loggins became the king of soundtracks with hit recordings for&nbsp;Caddyshack,&nbsp;Footloose, and&nbsp;Top Gun; and a bona fide global superstar singing alongside Bruce Springsteen and Michael Jackson on "We Are the World." &nbsp; In&nbsp;Still Alright, Kenny Loggins gives fans a candid and entertaining perspective on his life and career as one of the most noteworthy musicians of the 1970s and '80s. He provides an abundance of compelling, insightful, and terrifically amusing behind-the-scenes tales. Loggins draws readers back to the musical eras they've loved, as well as addressing the challenges and obstacles of his life and work--including two marriages that ended in divorce, a difficult but motivating relationship with the older brother for which "Danny's Song" is named, struggles with his addiction to benzodiazepines, and the revelations of turning seventy and looking back at everything that has shaped his music--and coming to terms with his rock-star persona and his true self.

There’s always one dog. One special dog you’ll never forget. One dog that touched your heart in a way that lasts a lifetime . . . For singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins—whose records have sold more than 25 million copies worldwide—that dog was Moose, his childhood pet. And this touching picture book, with its sweet and appealing illustrations, is based on one of his songs, and tells the unforgettable story of that friendship. Moose—a chubby, adorable, smiling puppy—and young Kenny do everything together: as Loggins says "Moose thinks I’m his home." They romp, curl up together in bed, have parties with family, and go down to the riverboat near where they live. The protective pup even growls and saves him from an intimidating stranger. The two are inseparable, as a boy and his dog will be. But the years pass, and as Loggins sets off to pursue his musical dream, he’s forced to leave the dog behind. And one night, while he’s on stage singing, he somehow knows: Moose is gone. Yet he believes, sometime, somewhere, he and Moose will meet again. Any child who loves and perhaps has lost a beloved pet will relate to Kenny’s story. It sends a message of love straight to the heart and will bring a smile to every child’s face.
