That outtake is on the remastered 2 disc version of Rumours.

Thank you! The harmonies on it are so much more haunting than what went onto the album.

Thank you! The harmonies on it are so much more haunting than what went onto the album. Ditto. I love this song, but I agree that the harmonies (love when this band harmonizes) on the outtake moves this version up a notch. Thanks for sharing.. I forgot how beautiful this one is.

This is my favorite mix of "Oh Daddy" and I LOVE how Stevie's harmony vocals are featured. It's one of several examples of how the WRONG mix of a song ended up making the final cut for the album. This version should have been mixed for "Rumours".

I totally agree! I love the track with Stevie's vocals, it makes the song 100% better IMO.

I agree with everyone that Stevie's added vocals are simply gorgeous on that outtake of Oh Daddy. However, I still think the final product is superior. It's very sparse- it has an air of restraint that creates a properly spooky atmosphere. The finalized backing vocals with Christine, Stevie, & Lindsey are just little strobes of light that awaken you from the dreaminess of the song. I think the finished version of Oh Daddy is simply masterful- it's all about restraint & giving the song proper "air." I think that's part of what was so great about the first 3 Rumours-era Mac albums- it wasn't necessarily what the band put into the songs: it's what they didn't that leant them such a special sound.

Stevie added some great vocals on this tune. I wish they had put that version on the album as well. Gives a band feel.
