Now we know which Silver Springs it is... The b-side version, which I believe someone mentioned - hasn't been released on cd.

I think this sounds excellent - I'm looking forward to the whole thing, it's a real mixed bag of stuff - with the dvd and the new live symphony stuff...

Everytime I get excited, I then think were is B&TB from Vegas or Melbourne? It was the most talked about performance for ever

That's my biggest complaint. You just KNOW they have footage, from somewhere. BATB and Landslide should both absolutely be included on the DVD.

I'm excited David Wild is doing the interview, he adores Stevie.

Welcome to the dark side.

I liked Chastain too.

I thought that the b-side version was the same version released on CD.

I actually have the original GYOW single and it sounds exactly the same as the Rumours Deluxe version (but less scratchy and popply

).

I wonder why she is not touring on her own.

"REFLECTIONS - THE VERY BEST OF STEVIE NICKS" CD/DVD Package Scheduled for March 27 Release
Thursday February 1, 1:41 pm ET
Nicks to Perform at Super Bowl Pre-Game on CBS This Sunday
BURBANK, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Feb 1, 2007 -- Stevie Nicks, one of the most successful female artists in rock history and the embodiment of the transcendent power of music, is scheduled to release "REFLECTIONS - THE VERY BEST OF STEVIE NICKS" on March 27th; it was announced today by her label, Reprise Records. "REFLECTIONS" is an extraordinary collection of songs from the multi-platinum, multi-Grammy Award winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee's stunning three decade career as a solo artist and member of the legendary Fleetwood Mac.

"REFLECTIONS -THE VERY BEST OF STEVIE NICKS" opens with the original mastered studio version of "Edge of Seventeen" and closes with a live performance of the song recorded last summer with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. In between are Nicks' classics including "Stand Back," "Leather and Lace" and "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" with Tom Petty. The CD also has a live version of "Landslide" (also recorded with the Melbourne Symphony), "Rhiannon" and a knock-out version of Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll." Other standouts are a haunting version of "Sorcerer" sung with Sheryl Crow which was originally on Nicks' "TROUBLE IN SHANGRI-LA" CD, the Deep Dish dance remix of "Dreams" and "Silver Springs" from the original master of "RUMOURS" -- a cult favorite which appeared only as a b-side to "Go Your Own Way."

The DVD component of "REFLECTIONS" offers 13 Stevie videos with voice-over commentary by Nicks as well as an audio interview by journalist David Wild. Also included on the DVD is a never before seen Stevie Nicks home video which was filmed during the making of the five-times platinum "BELLA DONNA" album. The accompanying booklet will have original Stevie Nicks art work as well as photographs and personal pictures hand-picked by the artist representing a cross section of iconic pictures spanning her entire career.

Stevie Nicks is scheduled to perform this weekend (Feb. 4) at the Super Bowl pre-show in Miami this Sunday airing on CBS and is headed back to the famous Collosseum at Caesars Palace for a return engagement of her specially conceived critically acclaimed show on March 20, 21, 23 and 24.

This Spring, Nicks will embark on a national concert tour with Chris Isaak. Dates for the tour will be announced shortly.

Who is David Wild?

She's ALIVE and WELL!!

markolas · #28 02-01-2007, 10:23 PM

I don't get why she didn't just put out a whole live album, as opposed to a few live tracks mixed in with songs everyone already has.

The versions of Silver Springs found on The Chain, The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac, and the Rumours Expanded & Remastered are all different from the b-side version.

The version from The Chain is the closest in mix, but some of Stevie's backup vocals at the end of the song are mixed differently. The line that stands out is "I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you" sung in the background. It almost sounds like the vocal was turned down, whereas on the 45 it is emphasized. Unless you're completely obsessive and nitpicky like me, you won't really hear much difference. But I remember being disappointed when The Chain came out because I clearly heard a different version from my scratchy 45.

I'm cautiously optimistic. It might have been easier and more cost-effective to pull a version that was already mixed and remastered (e.g. The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac) than to start from scratch from old master tapes, which may not even be available anymore.
