Leaving Here

Jake Riviera of Stiff Records, a casual acquaintance of Lemmy's, offered to release a new single from the band.

The single was scheduled for release with catalogue number BUY9 when United Artists intervened, forcing Stiff to shelve its distribution.

A live version of "Leaving Here" was issued in 1980 as the lead track on The Golden Years EP, reaching No.

Motown blue-eyed soul singer Tommy Good released a version of the song as the B-side to his 1964 single "Baby I Miss You".

Additionally, it is available as downloadable content for the music video game series Rock Band as part of The Best of The Who pack.

[4] The song appeared as "Leavin' Here" on singles released by the Rationals in 1966 and 1967,[5] as did a 1989 version by Tinsley Ellis on his debut album Fanning the Flames.

[6] In 1972 American rock band Brownsville Station covered the song on their second LP, A Night On The Town.

Pearl Jam recorded the song for the 1996 Home Alive compilation album which was released to fund women's self-defense classes.

The Irish rock band the Strypes recorded a cover of the song for their EP Young Gifted & Blue.
