"Top of the world" - "Loud, proud, playing her fiddle with brio, Carthy hurls herself into songs like a diver from a clifftop. With electric guitar and bass, piano and drums her band, The Restitution, is equally loud, equally committed. To celebrate 30 years as a professional musician Carthy & The Restitution revisit songs from across her career, recording them anew ... The revelation of this album is the power of her own writing, for instance in 'Two Tears' and 'Blood on My Boots', a night time city odyssey worthy of Tom Waits. This is dramatic musical writing, brilliantly arranged and performed with an irresistible theatricality".
