Dave Loggins

Best known for his 1974 soft rock hit "Please Come to Boston," Dave Loggins released his debut album, Personal Belongings, in 1972. He found success with his sophomore outing, 1974's Epic-issued Apprentice (In a Musical Workshop), which included "Please Come to Boston." The LP peaked at number 53 on the Billboard Top Albums chart, and the single cracked the Top Ten -- it hit number one on the easy listening chart -- but it would be Loggins' only mainstream hit. Subsequent albums Country Suite (1976), One Way Ticket to Paradise (1977), and David Loggins (1979) failed to generate much heat, but he proved himself to be natural pop-smith, writing material for the likes of Tanya Tucker, Wynonna Judd, Alabama, and Toby Keith, among others, and even landing a pair of number one hits for Kenny Rogers ("Morning Desire") and Juice Newton ("You Make Me Want to Make You Mine").
