released several albums and hit a peak
with his 1974 pop classic " Please Come to
Boston, " which recounted Loggins touring
experiences with the Nitty Gritty Dirt

in 1972. All the while, his " number-one
fan " begs this " man from Tennessee " to
" please come home to me. "
The editor of this magazine and its late
former columnist Elizabeth Hunter were
among Dave Loggins' number-two fans.
