Lal Waterson tribute album?

I read on All Music Guide few months ago that a Lal Waterson tribute album was in the works. Very exciting if it were true -- but we've asked around and heard nothing since then. Anyone have any information, unsubstantiated rumors, or blatant but titillating falsehoods?

thanks so much! Looking back at All Music Guide, it now says a "Watersons" tribute . . . wonder if it's that updated info, or it said that all along and my imagination is playing tricks. Well, i guess we'll find out! E

There's a short piece on this in the "pending CDs" section of this month's (and next month's) Folk Roots. I was expecting someone to have posted it by now . . I'll make a note of it and bring it in on Monday.

Regards,

George

The only thing I could find in on From Richard Thompson's website:
Richard has recorded a version of Lal Waterson's 'Red Wine And Promises' for a forthcoming Topic Records tribute to LAL WATERSON. Billy Bragg, Christy Moore, Linda & Teddy Thompson, Kate Rusby, Dick Gaughan and numerous Watersons are also expected to contribute to this album.
