"Eliza Carthy brings both a fresh new spin and timeless quality to 30 years of her best songs, from music hall to rural folk ... Everything is tightly played, and with Carthy in such rich vocal form, every number emerges refreshed".

"Far from curating a dry, predictable selection, she has instead reached out to her Twitter community whose song suggestions spanning the decades have resulted in a delightfully diverse collection, a mixture of the crowd-pleasing and the memorable curios. Reworking everything from scratch as a brand-new project gives the album a fine unified flow when experienced as a whole. This is the sound of the artist as she is now, capturing a bountiful snapshot of her relationship with her own work as she feels it today, and today Eliza sounds particularly switched on".

"[Carthy's] boldness hasn't always worked, but the sheer conviction of these new versions of golden oldies (...) demonstrates not only the enduring vivacity of her performance but a mischievous desire to mess with her own proud catalogue. With an exhilarating band behind her - highlighted by Dave Delarre's strident electric guitar and Saul Rose's dexterous melodeon - it's probably her most conventionally accessible album".

"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".
