"With more than a dozen unreleased cuts included in the 30 songs making up either digital, double CD, or two LP sets, this is an anthology blending fifty years of Rock history. Curated painstakingly by Nash and longtime friend and associate Joel Bernstein, the artist is said to be grateful to present his songs in this way ... This a taste of the first fifty years, and Over The Years foreshadows of the brilliance of Graham Nash".

"Arriving nearly a decade after the career-spanning 2009 box Reflections, Over the Years... isn't nearly as ambitious a compilation as its predecessor. In its simplest form, it's a collection of 15 highlights from Nash's career, using the first Crosby, Stills & Nash album as its starting point and running until his 2016 album, This Path Tonight ... All of this makes for a nice capsule introduction, but for the dedicated, the selling point is the second disc on the Deluxe Edition, which collects 15 demos ... A few of these were previously released, but taken as a collective, these unadorned recordings (...) strip away not just the studio polish but nostalgia, revealing the delicate craft that lies behind them".

"The CD comes as a two-disk set - the first disk contains original and re-mixed recordings that more or less serve as a greatest hits collection. Disc 1 is more than adequate, but nothing you haven't heard before with remastered versions of Nash classics like "Military Madness" and "Simple Man." They're good for comparative purposes, but the demos are the real treat on this album. Indeed, this release is far more than just a curious historical recording - you'll hit repeat often. There's raw, heroic quality hidden in these versions. After years of listening to the official (overplayed) tracks, these takes are quite refreshing, at least for now sounding superior to the songs we've known for so long".
