"Leaving on a Jet Plane" was a song written by John Denver in 1967 during a layover at an airport in Washington and was recorded by the Mitchell Trio that year. Others had covered the song that year, including versions from Spanky & Our Gang and Peter, Paul and Mary on Album 1700, their 1967 effort; however, it only became a hit in 1969. It turned out to be their biggest (and final) hit.
Country group The Kendalls also recorded a cover of the song, which entered the U.S. country singles top-fifty in 1970.
