The only difference is that this song is tacked onto the end after "Gold Dust Woman".

Not sure if the difference is due to listening to the mp3 rip of the 2004 re-issue & having the "mixed/mastered FOR iTunes" 2013 version; but I thought the new version sounds light years better than the 2004 re-issue. I actually sat down and PURPOSELY listened to the album all the way through both versions. (although I did flip-flop "Songbird" & "Silver Springs" in the running order of the new version)
Again, it's incredibly difficult for me to say nice things about
Rumours, but I thought the new version sounded great. Heard things in the songs I never heard before on any other version.
