The remastered version is best, imo

That's the best version of it to me.

I like em both..the remastered version is a little hyped and in the highs..much more 'open' sound, which i like.. it's great..you can pick up on Christine's keyboard work much better and it's longer..

a lot of the Mac i just can't separate from the time it was recorded. not that i was all that informed when i was in grammar school, and that is part of the problem, i guess.
So much of this stuff keeps getting bigger tho, like you, Biggie..The reuniting of F-Mac and that filmed show was an explosion of ""jeeziz, "how good were these guys?"" in that show, they were better than ever...pretty amazing if only for that broad touch of everyone..songs people relate to very heavily because of the stuff going on in em..This song, Silver Springs..I relate to it very heavily, some incredibly poignant and beautiful imagery in it.
Are you saying I'm getting older, too?

Yeah, I like that crackle. His guitar picking is great in that version.
In the 1997 version there is a moment in the video where Stevie looks at Lindsay that is so poignant and heartbreaking.

Unsurprisingly, there's even a story behind that particularly performance.
EDIT: ...which vision appears to have alluded to in his post directly above mine.

Love that song - was originally supposed to be on Rumours, but Mick cut it out, look up the story - very interesting
Some believe Mick was acting at Lindsay's behest when deciding not to include this on Rumours.
