    Can anyone give me a list of artists who played with The Beatles please, either in concert or on television. I'm aware Cilla Black sang onstage with them during the early days of her career but I'm curious how many others had the pleasure of playing with them, even if it was just briefly - thanks.

    I know they opened for Roy Oribison (1964?), and that The Remains opened for them on their '66 US Tour.

    As for actually playing with them (since I may have mis-read the question), there's of course Billy Preston on the rooftop concert...

    Technically only two people were ever credited as playing with The Beatles, Tony Sheridan and Billy Preston.
