Question Is there any more info about this (apparently new) Mac recording?

This was discussed at the ledge a month or two ago, but since the "March 21" date is coming up, I was wondering if anyone knows/has heard any more info about it lately:

"An array of distinguished international artists have contributed recordings to an environmental benefit project, set to be launched this month with a showcase at the Midem conference in Cannes, Billboard Bulletin reports. The 21-track "Gaia" album features what is understood to be the last official studio recording by Australian rock band Midnight Oil, together with recordings from Zucchero, Anggun, Cesaria Evora, Billy Preston, Manu Dibango, and original members of Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp, and the Moody Blues.

The album, set for international release March 21, is to be signed to label and distribution partners on a region-by-region basis. Proceeds will be used to finance education programs in schools throughout the world in 2004.

Gaia World Event project organizer Alan Simon, an artist, composer, musician, and producer, is also coordinating a series of "echo-events" to take place in such sites as the Himalayas, the Amazon, and the Sahara. Recordings of the sessions will yield a live album. Additionally, a "Concert for the Planet" has been scheduled for Paris in early September"

As discussed on the ledge back then, the "original FM" stuff may mean the Peter Green line up but in case this is the press way of (once again) trying to make a big deal about the "Rumours" line up (in their mind being the "original FM" even though it's not) of FM, I thought I'd post/ask about it here just in case ANYONE here has heard anything additional about it.

It seems strange that March 21 is on a FRIDAY and as we know US releases are on Tuesdays and UK releases are on Mondays but anyways, if anyone knows anything more about this please do post about it here. Thanks in advance.

John
