Look no further than the many pensive black and white photos, most with Graham Nash’s eyes either hidden behind shades or turned away from the camera, to get a feel for this reflective, atmospheric, sometimes brooding album. “Where are we going?” he asks on the opening title track, and “What are you going to do when the last show is over?” on the closing one. It goes to show that, even at 74 with more than five decades as a professional musician (he started singing in the Hollies at 20), Nash still has more questions than answers.

Trace elements of the same passion that drove him through his work with The Hollies and then Crosby, Stills & Nash (and sometimes Young) are clearly audible on This Path Tonight, though the Blackpool-born singer is obviously in a very different place now. This Path Tonight is simply Nash continuing to be as present as possible for everything he experiences and recording the results. It's what he does.
