"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".
