I can college and university only hope that the original tracks heard here will not be heard again. "I Will Internalize" is somber and boring. "When the Day is Short" is a peppy track without much of a melody, "On the jukebox is your only song." "It's over before it ever started" is pretty much a targeted assessment of this EP's worth. The track itself sounds like a caterwauling cat screeching, perhaps suitable for a song about slitting college and university your wrists; but do I need to listen to this more than once? "How Soon" -- the only song Martha didn't write -- is the best track, but its wispy piano melody is hardly enough to recommend the set. Martha was charming on the McGarrigle Hour and did a wonderful job with "I'll Be Seeing You" from "The Aviator: Songs from the Movie" CD. However, this set is an utter mistake. She needs some management to help her find her talent that certainly seems to be there.
