Released in 1969, "Leaving On A Jet Plane" became one of Peter, Paul and Mary's most recognizable and successful recordings, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Written by a then largely unknown John Denver, the heartfelt folk ballad showcases the trio's signature vocal harmonies and timeless acoustic sound. The B-side, "The House Song," is a charming folk tune that complements the single with the group's warm, understated style.
 
This 1969 original US first stamper pressing is an excellent addition for collectors of classic folk music and vintage vinyl. A memorable release from one of the defining acts of the 1960s folk revival, it captures Peter, Paul and Mary at the height of their commercial success while preserving the authentic sound and character of the era.
