Silver Springs was written for the Rumours album, but was cut last minute, which was totally stupid. I don't have any demos for this, but I do love the '77 version of this song.

I don't have a demo but I would definitely like to hear the 1977 version!!!! Hope someone has it to share!

It wasn't done much on the Rumours tour, but it was done in 1976 during the brief stint of shows they did. The song was released (along with Go Your Own Way) in the fall of '76 at that time it was still on the album. When it was no longer on the album, the song was dropped from the set list and more or less forgotten until 1992 and "The Chain" boxed set.

There are two live versions I have seen:

I think this is the other one from the one posted. If not, let me know.

There also is a piano demo in which she clearly says at 4:27 "I cast a spell on you - you won't forget me" at the end seen here:

her voice on the piano demo is stunning to me.

As an aside and though it is a lip sync - I LOVE the emotions on her face at the end of this one as he drops his head.

thanx for posting all of these~ i adore this song!!!~
i remember back in the day i had to have every 45 even if the song was on the lp & i bought "go your own way" on 45 & "silver springs" was the "B" side, i freaked when i heard it~ needless to say "go your own way" was nearly never played~ i thought the mac so stupid for dropping it from the album & was very happy when they had the 3 re-releases of the 1st lp's remastered & included it as it should have been in the beginning~

i won a radio contest w/ "silver springs" back during the "trouble..." tour, a show at bonner springs, kansas & won front row tix & backstage passes~ i had to sing some of it & the listeners had to vote on the best & they picked me, i was floored~ but the frickin' show was cancelled, i was devestated
