Loggins & Messina broke up in 1976, and Loggins went on to solo stardom with such million-selling albums as Celebrate Me Home, Nightwatch (which included the hit Whenever I Call You Friend), and Keep the Fire, all in the cheerful, sensitive style he had displayed in Loggins & Messina. Loggins also became known as the king of the movie soundtrack song, scoring Top Ten hits with Im Alright (from Caddyshack), Footloose (from Footloose), Danger Zone (from Top Gun), and Nobodys Fool (from Caddyshack II). His own albums sold less well (and came less frequently) throughout the 80s, with later efforts like 1991s Leap of Faith, 1997s The Unimaginable Life and 1998s December finding favor primarily in adult contemporary circles; in 1994, he also issued a childrens album, Return to Pooh Corner, and released its sequel More Songs from Pooh Corner in early 2000.
