As a kid growing up in Greater Manchester, England, Graham Nash just wanted to be like Buddy Holly, as he sings on the new song "Buddy's Back."
Nash, of course, had different gifts, and went above and beyond, becoming a two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, as a member of the Hollies — note the name — and Crosby, Stills & Nash.
If it hadn't been for those outfits, the singer-songwriter was a shoo-in as a solo artist, a sort of side career he launched in 1971 with "Songs for Beginners," an album with such classics as "Military Madness," "Simple Man" and "Chicago/We Can Change the World."
