Dio tribute album to feature Lemmy, Rob Halford, Dave Grohl and more

NoiseCreep.com interviewed Wendy Dio who confirmed a tribute album in honor of her late husband is in the works:

"Then we have a tribute record, which probably won't come out this year, but everybody signed up," Dio told Noisecreep. "Even today they were picking songs for which songs they're gonna do."

So, who's signed on thus far? "Rob Halford, Glenn Hughes, Dave Grohl, Lemmy," she said, adding Grohl will do the Black Sabbath hit 'Mob Rules,' and Halford will be taking on 'Long Live Rock 'n' Roll.' And artists keep coming on. "I just talked to Alice [Cooper], roped Alice in and Sebastian [Bach] and Chris [Jericho]," she said, referring to fellow attendees at the Golden Gods press conference. And Cooper already has a song in mind, going back to the Elf days, according to Wendy.
