Finale is the second live double album (their 8th release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in early 1977 (see 1977 in music).

The duo had broken up by the time this album was released and its release was considered by some purely as a profit-taking move intended to get what money could be got before the duo was completely out of the public mind. In that light it can be considered a Columbia release, rather than a Loggins and Messina Album
