Ghosts of American Astronauts - acoustic cover

Ghosts of American Astronauts is a beautiful song by the Mekons. I don't think the song is asserting that the Moon landing was faked. It's more that the mythology surrounding it is false, so the song presents an alternative version with Nixon watching on, sucking a dry Martini, content that the war in Vietnam can rage on while this heavenly spectacle unfolds so sweetly for him. I recorded this version of it in one take while setting up the Fillmore South recording studio, aka my spare bedroom. I would love to create a better rendition of it, but it might never happen so here is the rough and ready one.
