Loggins and Messina (1976) Wasting Our Time

 From their last studio album, Native Sons, this jazzy track was a Loggins co write with John Townshend of the Sanford Townshend Band, a group who would effectively continue Loggins' brand of woodwind blue eyed soul with a Southern rock tilt. This song captures Loggins' sensuality in its arrangement before breaking into the catchy chorus of 'Theirs no sense in wasting our time', while nice its not on the compositional or instrumental level as their best work that managed to mix blue eyed soul with the dynamic contrasts of baroque folk, pastoral easy listening and rocking guitars.
