<<<THE T⏳ME CAPSULE<<<

LEAVING ON A JET PLANE

Peter, Paul & Mary

1969

U.K. - #2; U.S.A. - #1

Trivia:

John Denver's original version of "Leaving On A Jet Plane" was titled "Oh, Babe, I Hate To Go". That recording was produced by Milt Okun, who was also at the helm when folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary recorded its cover. The producer saw potential in the song, but was not keen on its title; hence the change.
