  • Oh? I didn't know this wasn't on any of his recordings! I admittedly haven't listened to much Phil Ochs. I intend to do so in the future. What would you recommend I start with?

    This recording, by the way, was taken from 'This Is Your Land: The Story of American Folk Music'. It is a great compilation.. in fact... I think I will post another great track from this compilation.. watch this space!!

    As for the year of recording - I'm not sure... it's actually my friend's cd so I will ask him.

see all

  • @superhoga Very well put!

  • Thanks. I never heard that one. I love how early and how optimistic the tone. Like, "The Bells" and "Morning" there is such a fresh quality to it. One of the greats in my mind, Phil Ochs!

  • A great song pointing out the opportunity costs of pointless symbols of misplaced nationalistic pride.

  • Spaceman appears on the Broadside Tapes written 1962-63 and is listed on the lost Jim Glover Tapes (1963). Spaceman is not listed as having been performed at any of Phil's concerts.

  • This song was also released on "On Broadside," an album exclusively of Phil Ochs, and the songs he wrote for that publication. That is where I heard it.

    Love it!

  • Nice - when was this recorded? I don't recall it being on any recordings.
