Desert Dub

"Desert Dub" is an early version of the track Geronimo from the "Sugar in Space"album.
It is ., as the title gives away, a dub. Drums, snatches of guitar and vocals come and go. The strange songlike noises are different crickets from the Arizona desert. There is even a rattlesnake giving off warnings.
The musical highpoint for me is Didrik Ingvaldsen's trumpet. He blows high and low and makes improvised buglecalls worthy of a western by Leone & Eastwood.
