The Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974-1987 is a compilation album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in February 2003 (see 2003 in music). This album is a collection of some of the band's popular songs from their debut album (self-titled Rush) to Hold Your Fire. A limited-edition version of the initial CD release 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.
