RUSH To Guest On CBC's 'Q' Next Week

May 2, 2009

According to a post on the RUSH fan site RushIsABand.com, RUSH's Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee will be interviewed sometime next week by Jian Ghomeshi of CBC's cultural affairs show "Q". The program airs weekdays at 10:00 a.m. on CBC Radio One. The exact air date has not yet been announced.

RUSH's "Retrospective 3" (Anthem/Atlantic) greatest-hits package sold more than 10,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 47 on The Billboard 200 chart. The collection — available as both individual CD and two-disc CD/DVD set — features tracks culled from the legendary trio's two decades with Atlantic Records, spanning such acclaimed studio works as 1989's "Presto", 1991's "Roll The Bones", 1993's "Counterparts", 1996's "Test For Echo", 2002's "Vapor Trails", and 2007's "Snakes & Arrows". In addition, "Retrospective 3" features a previously unreleased live version of the classic "Ghost of a Chance", recorded live in Atlanta during RUSH's 2008 "Snakes & Arrows Tour", as well as two tracks — "One Little Victory" and "Earthshine" — newly remixed by the band's Alex Lifeson and master mixer Richard Chycki (AEROSMITH, MICK JAGGER, P. DIDDY).
