I also believe Stevie’s vocal on the original “Silver Springs” was underwhelming. She needed to grow into her own song. When she sings it in 1997, the change is stunning—and the song truly comes into its own as a classic. Before that it was just a pleasant, well-arranged B-side.

And thankfully “Oh Daddy” can and never shall be removed! It is a classic, among the finest moments on the record.
Plus, Oh Daddy demonstrates that the haunting tones of Fleetwood Mac did not just come from Stevie Nicks, those tones were already there.
