25 Years – The Chain is a box set by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac originally released on 24 November 1992.
The four new songs were "Paper Doll", which was recorded earlier than the others as it was written by and recorded with Stevie Nicks and Rick Vito, both of whom had left the band in 1991, "Love Shines" and "Heart of Stone", both Christine McVie songs, and "Make Me A Mask", contributed by then-former member Lindsey Buckingham.
"Silver Springs" was originally intended for inclusion on the international multi-million selling album Rumours, however, it was removed from the track listing at the last minute.
[2] The disagreement was ultimately resolved and the song itself was eventually released as a single five years later in 1997, taken from the live album The Dance.
A condensed 2-CD box set, titled Selections from 25 Years – The Chain, was also released at the same time.
