But for the rest, I prefer The Dance, where I think Stevie's voice was in fantastic shape. One of my friends once heard the original Silver Springs and said "What a mess, she's kinda' all over the place." Not so on The Dance. "The strain" in parts actually communicates the lyric more effectively. It was a major come-back triumph.
Agree 100%. I'm glad SS wasn't on Rumours. Rumours is perfect the way it is. And The Dance featured SS and that was a highlight.
