I swear it's Phil Ochs

Does the Belle and Sebastian song Piazza New York Catcher share a tune with a Phil Ochs song?
When Pandora first played Piazza New York Catcher, I thought it was Phil Ochs at first and ever since I've been convinced it shares a tune with some Phil Ochs song, but I can't find it.

I don't hear Ochs's voice at all in B&S. Like nonane, the closest melodic and tempo fit I could find was Chords of Fame, but the arrangement is so different.
Are you sure you're hearing Ochs and not a contemporary like Donovan, whose light British voice is much closer to Stuart Murdoch's?
