The Real Thing is the third greatest hits compilation by Australian singer songwriter Russell Morris. The album was released as a 2-CD album by Rouseabout Records in 2002. Disc 1, tracks 9-19 are his entire 1971 Bloodstone. The rest of the tracks cover his entire career.

It was released to coincide with the renewed interest in Morris' music, with the inclusion of "The Real Thing" and "Wings of an Eagle" on the soundtrack of the 2000 film, The Dish and the highly successful 2002 Australian tour of Long Way to the Top, in which Morris participated.

Waterfront Records said; "Regarded as one of Australia's most enduring pop songwriters and singers. This amazing compilation brings together all of Russell's major songs from several albums and documents an incredible career. Comprehensive CD liner notes giving the lowdown on the songs and the remarkable history of an Australian contemporary music legend."
