I wouldn't want another greatest hits package although some would have to be there, and some later stuff would be totally welcome and even a Gypsy track for variety if Hank insisted. Maybe a two disc DVD then with an accompanying, and importantly, accurate documentary on them preferably supervised by a member of the 'glitterati' to ensure their deserved status is granted to them. 'Rhythm and Greens' could be a 'bonus' video item!

All of that sounds like a great idea.

It's the missing link in their legacy. The last two tours provided some much needed live footage made to the highest standards - but the documentary and rarities package sounds the ideal solution.

They must feel as though they've said goodbye now emotionally via the various tours.

A studio dvd would be a good idea and different! A few old hits, but they have loads of stuff they never played on stage that I know of. Santa Ana - Place in the Sun - Lost City etc. Would be relative cheap to produce and a good chance for close ups, and in between chat in a relaxed atmosphere.
