Finale is the second live double album (and eighth overall release) by singer/songwriter duo Loggins and Messina, released in early 1977.

The duo had parted by the time this album was released, and it was considered by some purely as a profit-taking move intended to get what money could be made before the pair faded from the public mind. In that light it can be considered a Columbia 'corporate' release, rather than one intended by artists Kenny Loggins or Jim Messina.

This was also the last album of Kenny Loggins before he went on a solo career in 1977.
