Tales of Fleetwood Mac’s pursuit of sonic perfection are legendary. The band reportedly required four days, nine pianos and three tuners to find a suitable instrument for Christine McVie, and co-producer Ken Caillat tells Sound on Sound that sessions for “The Chain” were similarly exhausting. “I almost got fired while trying to record it because we spent five days on drum sounds – the band thought we were clueless.” One such epic was “Silver Springs,” a reproachful song aimed squarely at her ex. “I wrote‘Silver Springs’ about Lindsey,” she says in Classic Albums. “We were in Maryland somewhere driving under a freeway sign that said Silver Spring, Maryland. And I loved the name. ‘Silver Springs’ sounded like a pretty fabulous place to me. ‘You could be my silver springs. …’ That’s just a whole symbolic thing of whatyou could have beento me.”Top 100 Album-Jahrescharts" (in German).
