This is a long clip from the Classic Albums series, on the making of Rumours. There were two couples going into the recording, neither of which survived it. In this clip you get some sense of the relationship drama that is imprinted on the final mix when the engineer describes how physically close Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham were as they sang harmonies, on songs like Dreams; especially as they sung a line like "players only love you when they're playing" - which must have been directed at Buckingham.
You need to go to about the 5:20 minute mark on this clip to get to the 'acapella' section, but to hear the three voices (and one overdubbed Stevie Nicks) together is worth it.
