Need a query to get path for last DB backup

Help needed. I need a query (or location of that data so I can write
one) to get the file path information for the last backup taken.
Many thanks.

SELECT TOP 1 mf.physical_device_name
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset AS b
LEFT JOIN msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily AS mf ON b.media_set_id=mf.media_set_id
WHERE b.database_name='HeliosDB'
ORDER BY b.backup_start_date DESC

Oops, typo. Right version:

WHERE b.database_name=N'YourDatabaseName'
