If you google Colin Loggins, who is Danny's son, you'll see his wedding announcement from 2007 that states his age at 39. That suggests Colin was born around 1968, which would support your version of the story behind Danny's Song.
Dan Loggins was my fraternity brother in Beta Chi at Cal State University in Los Angeles in the mid 60's. Hope this sheds some light on this subject. - Stan Friar, South Pasadena, CA

That's good to know because it confirms that he was there, and a member of Beta Chi. Would you happen to know when he got married?
