GGACP celebrates the birthday of Grammy and Emmy-winning singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins (b. January 7) with this ENCORE of a revealing conversation (from 2019) about the rewards of collaboration, the mystery of the creative process, the challenge of composing songs for the movies “Top Gun” and “Footloose” and his “accidental” partnership with writer-producer Jim Messina. Also, Kenny tries out for “Hair,” mimics Bob Dylan (and Tina Turner!), steers clear of the disco era and teams with Stevie Nicks and Michael McDonald. PLUS: Stealer’s Wheel! Anne Murray covers “Danny’s Song”! Gilbert auditions for “Caddyshack II”! And Kenny (and Gilbert) guest star on “Family Guy”!

Special thanks to Rick Cowling, Michael Jensen and Ryan Romenesko!
