Full Sail is the third album by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in 1973. It showed the versatility of the duo, with everything from 1950s retro to island-style to soft ballads. The single 'My Music' charted at No. 16, and the follow-up, 'Watching the River Run', made it to No. 71. The album as a whole did better, reaching No. 10 on the Pop Charts.

I have waited years for Loggins & Messina's self-named second Album to be remastered. Getting Full Sail with it was just a nice bonus. And the remastering is perfect. The songs all sound as they did on the original vinyl. You really get to appreciate all the little touches that Jim Messina as the Albums producer puts into each song. Listen to Full Sail on Spotify. Loggins & Messina Album 1972 9 songs. This is every inch a follow-up to Loggins & Messina, including a '50s rock & roll pastiche in the style of 'Your Mama Don't Dance' called 'My Music' that hit number 16 as a single. Other notable material included Jim Messina's island-rock anthem 'Lahaina' and one of Kenny Loggins' sensitive but generic ballads, typically called 'A Love Song.'
