The Best: Sittin' In Again is a compilation album (10th release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in mid 2005 (see 2005 in music).

Yet another compilation album (i.e. "Greatest Hits), this release was timed to preview the duos' upcoming reunion tour. It contains most of their hits, omits a few, and gives a nice retrospective view of their early music. Six of the tracks are from their debut album Sittin' In, while 6 come from their 2nd release Loggins and Messina. Four more are off the 3rd album Full Sail
