Background [edit]
"Already Gone", which is four minutes and 13 seconds long, was written by Robb Strandlund and Jack Tempchin.[1][2] In the liner notes for The Very Best Of, Glenn Frey said that Tempchin sent him a tape of the song through the mail. Tempchin had already written one of the Eagles' previous singles, "Peaceful Easy Feeling".[3]
"Already Gone" was one of the first songs that the Eagles recorded after they moved to Los Angeles, and it was produced by Bill Szymczyk.[3] Frey was the lead vocalist.[4]
Release [edit]
"Already Gone" is the opening track of the Eagles' album On the Border, which was released by Asylum Records on March 22, 1974.[1] It was released as the first single from the album in April 1974.[5][6] Its b-side was "Is It True".[5]
The song has also been included on some of the Eagles' compilation albums, including Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975) and The Very Best Of.[7][8]
Critical reception [edit]
"Already Gone" has been described as a "classic".[9] In his book To the Limit: The Untold Story of the Eagles, Marc Eliot wrote that the song "was an out-and-out rocker ... Musically it sounded like a fuel-injected rave-up, with melodic echoes of both 'Peaceful Easy Feeling' and 'Take It Easy.'[10]
Chart performance [edit]
The song was a "staple" on AM and FM radio.[11] It peaked at #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 on June 29, 1974, and spent 15 weeks on the chart.[12]
Live performances [edit]
The Eagles have included "Already Gone" in their live performances since the 1970s. It was one of their "best selections" at a 1979 Michigan show, according to one reviewer.[13] At a 2002 concert in Washington, the song created a "frenzy," with the audience singing along.[14] A performance was included on the 2005 Farewell 1 Tour DVD, which was filmed in Australia.[15] In 2006, the band played the song in Manchester, and Frey delivered it "with humour and passion."[16]

Cover versions [edit]
"Already Gone" was covered by Tanya Tucker for the 1993 cover album Common Thread: The Songs of the Eagles. Rolling Stone's Kara Manning wrote that Tucker's version "transforms its male bravado into a feminist battle cry."[17]
The song was also covered by Wilson Phillips on their 2004 album California.[18]
