Best Guest Appearances

This is a thread for guest appearances that really made an impact on the sound of a given band.

The first one that comes to mind for me is Roger Martinez's appearance on Sacred Warrior's "The Flood":

Another one would be Ozzy/Slash's appearance on Motorhead's "I Ain't No Nice Guy":

What say you?

'Close My Eyes Forever'? That was a Lita tune with Ozzy guesting.

I like this one from Steve Jones with guest vocals from Axl.

I dont know who guest appeared for who but on the Private Parts Soundtrack the song Pictures of Matchstick Men with Ozzy & Type O Negative was kick ass

Anything Rob Rock does.

Anything Jorn Lande does.

Dale Thompson singing Stryper songs when Bride and Stryper toured together. Coolest thing I ever saw in concert.

You saw that? I was under the impression from what I heard Robert said that it was only one show.

This is a country track, but I love the guitar work that Tom Keifer adds to it. It makes it sound like something that could have been on Heartbreak Station.

I would have loved to have seen that. Didn't they actually offer him the job full time?

Only one REALLY stands out -
Beat It - Van Halen guitar solo. Casual Eddie magic.
Just thinking of it ...when that song hit the radio....
Branded - upon me. Not the easiest solo to duplicate either.
I read somewhere that it was done in one take.
