    Live albums often disappoint but this one doesn't. [Jan 2017, p.101]

    No Exit is immediate; even raw in places. It's committed to the truths inside the songs, not an iconic performance (as 1990's Blazing Away was). For that reason, it belongs on every Faithfull fan's shelf.

    The theatricality of the Nick Cave-penned "Late Victorian Holocaust" and Roger Waters' "Sparrows Will Sing" perfectly attuned to her autumn-years, grand-dame image. [Dec 2016, p.28]

    Whereas the DVD offers a longer set, including jewels in her crown like Broken English, the CD selects just 45 minutes, highlighting more recent material and covers, before sauntering into a forlorn As Tears Go By, a resilient Sister Morphine and a finale of The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan.
