I just posted an Eagles' song, but sung by Travis Tritt... This led me to check into the Eagles and sure enough I now bring you one of their great songs titled 'ALREADY GONE" - LIVE!!!
Background Bio (Short):
" "Already Gone" is a song recorded by the American rock band the Eagles for their 1974 album On the Border. It was written by Jack Tempchin and Robb Strandlund and produced by Bill Szymczyk. The song was the first single released from On the Border and peaked at No. 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Since then, the Eagles have included it on their greatest hits albums and in their live performances. Tanya Tucker and Wilson Phillips have covered the song."
LYRICS:
Eagles - "Already Gone"
Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf
But let me tell you I got some news for you
And you'll soon find out it's true
And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself
'Cause I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
Woo hoo hoo, my my, woo hoo hoo
The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
Just remember this, my girl, when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light (that's right)
And I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
Woo hoo hoo, my my, woo hoo hoo
Well, I know it wasn't you who held me down
Heaven knows it wasn't you who set me free
So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key
But me, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone
Already gone
All right, nighty-night
Already gone
Written by: Jack Tempchin, Robert Arnold Strandlund
I hope you all enjoy it!
Kerry

Thank you my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the music video of The Eagles performing Already Gone live late in their career as a band.
For comparison
Already Gone - Eagles (Live) 1974 - this video includes Don Felder when he was new to the band. He and Glenn Frey performed twin guitar solos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSWDrfl1Tk8
Song background {[songfacts.com/facts/eagles/already-gone]}
This is one of the few Eagles songs not written by any member of the band. It was written by the songwriters Jack Tempchin and Robb Strandlund, who were friends of the Eagles. Tempchin also wrote "Peaceful Easy Feeling," which appeared on the first Eagles album.
Tempchin sent this to Glenn Frey to pitch it as an Eagles song. Frey had just come off of a relationship, so the lyrics about getting over a breakup were probably meaningful to him. >>
Frey sang lead on this. The song features twin guitar solos by Frey and Don Felder, who was new to the band. The Eagles also used twin guitar solos on "Hotel California."
This was one of the first songs the Eagles recorded with producer Bill Szymczyk. Their previous albums, and some of On The Border, were recorded in London with the venerable British producer Glyn Johns. Recording with a new producer at nearby Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles was a huge relief for Glenn Frey, who didn't get on with Johns. "I was much more comfortable in the studio with Bill, and he was more than willing to let everyone stretch a bit," he said. "'Already Gone' - that's me being happier; that's me being free."
