I just read that Stephen Stills played percussion on the Bee Gees' "You Should Be Dancing." Nothing against either of them (both in my top 20 artist/bands), but it blew my mind. Does the Music Board have any other surprising pairings?
Duane Allman on Wilson Pickett doesn't count.

Does Jerry Garcia on pedal steel guitar on Teach Your Children by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young count?

A young Keith Whitley was lead singer in Ralph Stanley's Clinch Mountain boys bands back in the early 70's. May be common knowledge, but I didn't know it until a year or so ago. A teenage Ricky Skaggs was in the band too..

eh, fairly common knowledge, I think. Plus, all those California bands of that time were somewhat communal, weren't they?

Ry Cooder played guitar on Captain Beefheart's Safe as Milk LP (1967). Donovan sang the duet with Alice Cooper on Billion Dollar Babies. Legendary studio musician Carol Kaye played bass guitar on the Mothers of Invention's Absolutely Free LP.
Carol Kaye and Frank Zappa: Freak Out, indeed.
