RUSH's "The Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974 – 1987" compilation, which was originally released in February 2003, was certified gold on November 8, 2006 by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) for shipments in excess of 500,000 copies. A collection of some of the band's popular songs from their debut, self-titled album to "Hold Your Fire", the CD's limited-edition version came packaged with a DVD EP, containing videos for some of the songs on the CD, as well as "Mystic Rhythms" (omitted from the CD due to length),and the complete lyrics of all 16 songs on the CD. The album is 13 seconds short of taking up the entire capacity of a CD.

RUSH is currently working on its new studio album with producer Nick Raskulinecz (FOO FIGHTERS, STONE SOUR, SHADOWS FALL). An early 2007 release is expected.
