RUSH - Official Retrospective 3 Press Release Available

Anthem has released press release with a few more details regarding RUSH's upcoming Retrospective 3 greatest hits package, due out March 3rd. The press release reads as follows:

Anthem/Atlantic recording group Rush has announced details of the upcoming third volume in its continuing compilation series. Retrospective III (1989-2008) arrives in stores on March 3rd.

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 III 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).

The Retrospective III DVD gathers the band's 10 stunning music videos during the Atlantic years, including clips for fan favorites such as 'The Pass,' 'Roll The Bones', 'Stick It Out', 'Driven', and the Grammy Award-nominated 'Malignant Narcissism'. What's more, the DVD includes a trio of live videos filmed in Frankfurt, Germany during Rush's 2004 R30: 30th Anniversary World Tour, highlighted by a masterful performance of THE WHO's classic 'The Seeker' (originally recorded by Rush for 2004's Feedback). As an added bonus, the band has included a rare televised performance of the classic "Tom Sawyer" and an on-camera interview featuring all three members.
