...York Times critic John Rockwell '62 hailing both artists as "principal figures in New York's vanguard rock underground," and liberally praising their records. Arista Records chose to release both new albums at the same time, helping link the two in the public mind.

The rest of the performances are equally superb. Claude Jade manages to endow the solemn Christine with a rare subtlety. Nicknamed Peggy Proper because of her almost British reserve, Jade allows this woman's wit and shy humor to shine out. Marie-France Pisier performs most of the heavy dramatics; she gives her Colette a certain desperation well-suited to a woman lawyer unable to get clients and reduced to turning tricks...
