Remembered some more...

Huey Lewis playing harmonica for Thin Lizzy

Colosseum II/Barbara Thompson’s Paraphernalia (including Gary Moore and Don Airey) with Andrew and Julian Lloyd Webber - the Variations album, better known as The Theme from The South Bank Show

For that matter the cast on the original studio version of Jesus Christ Superstar including Murray Head, Mike D’Abo, John Gustafson and IAN GILLAN as Jesus!!!!!!

And speaking of Eminen there is him sampling the bass playing of Dave Peacock of Chas and Dave fame!

That old chestnut again.

From the many interviews I've read on the subject if NWR's playing actually made it onto any the Frankie Goes To Hollywood records it was as a series of individual notes which had been sequenced using the Fairlight's Page R. IMO that doesn't even count as a performance let alone a collaboration.
