Randy Meisner of the Eagles/Poco and Red Rhodes play on the Sweet Baby James LP. To my knowledge, that is the only record of JT's they play on
In that same song BJ Wilson played drums. He also played drums in the whole Rocky Horror Picture Show OST along with is fellow partner in Procol Harum Mick Grabham
Deodato arranged strings for Bjork's Homogenic LP. He also did the same for Sinatra. Interesting career.
Marc Bell aka Marky Ramone plays drums on bluesman Johnny Shines album "Mr. Cover Shaker". He is a member of the backing band led by David Bromberg !
The World Famous Incognito Vilonist credited on Billy Joel's Storm Front was actually Itzhak Perlman.

Brian and Marilyn Wilson sing a (down in the mix) harmony on Jackie DeShannon's New Arrangement LP from 1975. Remix please !!
On the Libby Titus (ex-wife of Levon Helm, wife of Donald Fagan ) LP on Columbia , songs are produced (individually) by Paul Simon, Carly Simon, and Robbie Robertson. OK record, but a commercial bomb.
Could never understand why Neil Young was credited as "Joe Yankee" on Graham Nash's Songs For Beginners LP. Good session work by Phil Lesh and Jerry Garcia on that record.
Not too crazy because he was a member of the band, but this still fascinates me: Billy Ficca, drummer of Television, plays drums on "Christmas Wrapping"
Did you know Chrissie Hynde sang on the U2's Pride? Just the moaning parts after the guitar break and the outro.
The Scream For Help movie soundtrack by John Paul Jones has some interesting collaborations -- Jimmy Page, Madeleine Bell, Jon Anderson. John Renbourn.
