Overview

The first track on the original EP is a cover version of American folk musician, Tim Hardin's, song "How Can We Hang On to a Dream?", with the title was changed to "Hang on to a Dream". The second track, "Avalanche" was a new song by the band. The next three tracks: "All My Colours (Zimbo)", "Silver" and "Angels and Devils"; are re-recordings of the songs. The final track of the original EP is another cover version, this time of the Bob Dylan song "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" with the title listed as "It's All Over Now".
