I hadn't heard that since, well, the '80s! But, yeah, really nice solo.

Sandy Denny on Zeppelin's "Battle of Evermore." The only outside vocalist ever to be on a Led Zep album.

The fabulous Clare Torry wailing for all she's worth (which amounted to a session fee of £30 at the time) on the closing song to Pink Floyd's epic Dark Side of the Moon album.

I was listening to that tonight and then moved onto Please Don't Touch, an album that I hadn't listened to for a while but thoroughly enjoyed mainly for the guest appearances. Steve Walsh, Ritchie Havens and even Randy Crawford of all people appear. I especially love Havens on How Can I? This could almost be a Beatles song, tremendous haunting melody and great vocals.

Darryl Way of Curved Air playing violin on Jethro Tull's "Acres Wild." Great track.

Not my favorite, but I like Peter Hammill on Peter Gabriel's 'Shock the Monkey'

LIZARD

Have to agree 100% on this choice.  what a great album, and the addition of JA on one track was a big factor.

I just remembered that the late/great keyboardist for Renaissance, John Tout, played guest keyboards on the mighty album "Argus" by Wishbone Ash!   Specifically, he played organ on "Throw Down The Sword."

Juergen Fritz and Helmut Koellen guested on some tracks on the lone, studio album "You Can Help Me" by German group "Jail", issued in 1976. The group released a great single called "Julie" featuring Koellen on lead vocals and guitar which I really admire.
