5.0 out of 5 stars Dave Loggins returns - finally, May 4, 2001

I first got into Dave Loggins in the late 70s, having bought 'Personal Belongings' and 'Apprentice in a Musical Workshop'. It was a time of fading singer-songwriters and rising Disco, so maybe this explains why he never made it to mainstream. This new CD is most welcome. Listening to his early songs, such as 'Good Side of Tomorrow' and 'Claudia', only makes you realise what an enormous talent he was. His second album containing some of his best work, with 'Please Come to Boston' (which made it into the US top 20), and the impressive 'Sunset Woman'. This song can still send shivers down my spine. His ability to look at different situations always impressed me, listen to 'Goodbye Eyes', and its so easy to relate to. Obviously 'Sister Mary Ryan', 'Girl from Knoxville Town' and 'Ship in a Bottle', are also very strong. I was lucky I recored all his albums onto Cassette, so I can listen to them easily. As for one of his strongest songs, 'Please Remember Me', well I for one, haven't forgotten him.

5.0 out of 5 stars I guess this will have to do..., March 1, 2001

There are very few "perfect" albums that come out of Nashville, EVER!!! Kris Kristofferson's self-titled debut had a roster of songs that have all become standards in the country field. So why no one has ever had the decency to release Dave Loggins' "Apprentice In A Musical Workshop" from 1974 is beyond me. Every single one of the songs in that album is a classic piece of writing from one of Music Row's premier craftsmen. "Please Come To Boston" was the hit, and "Sunset Woman" and "Girl From Knoxville" are represented here as well. But why not "My Father's Fiddle"? This collection shows Loggins at his best. There isn't one bad tune in the bunch, and it's particularly nice that his duet with Anne Murray, "Nobody Loves Me Like You Do" (he didn't write that one, though) is here as well. However, it still doesn't excuse "Apprentice" from having never come out on its own. Maybe someone will correct this oversight soon. David is also a candidate in my book to do one of the "Live At The Bluebird Cafe" recordings that feature the writers of the hit songs doing the songs themselves. (You have got to hear what he does with "Morning Desire"!!!)
