Guest Vocals
Dimmukane:
Anything involving Meatloaf.
Thrillho:
Here's my list of great guest vocals:
Rap music is great for this one; I'd point out the singles from Dr. Dre's 2001 album, namely 'Still D.R.E.', 'What's The Difference?', 'Forgot About Dre' and 'The Next Episode,' which all have guests on them, mainly Snoop Dogg and Eminem.
Roy Harper on Pink Floyd's 'Have A Cigar'
A shitload of people including Shane McGowan on Nick Cave's cover of 'Death Is Not The End'
Thom Yorke on PJ Harvey's 'This Mess We're In'
Joan Baez on any of the songs she did with Bob Dylan
Emmylou Harris during her contributions to Bob Dylan's Desire album
Redefined on Good Question's 'Lifeplan (remix)' as well as that same groups Holly Snooke on both the original 'Lifeplan' and 'Sitting Quiet'
Rolf Harris on Kate Bush's 'A Sky Of Honey' suite
Ana Matronic on New Order's 'Jetstream'
Patti Smith on R.E.M.'s 'E-Bow The Letter'
Kylie Minogue on Robbie Williams' 'Kids'
Whoever that chick is with The Communards on 'Don't Leave Me This Way'
Whoever that other bloke is on The Pogues' 'The Irish Rover'
And, possibly the best guest vocal of all time:
Kylie Minogue on Nick Cave's 'Where The Wild Roses Grow'
Cartilage Head:
I think that Maynard did very well on that Deftones song..I cannot remember what it was called.
Also, the songs that Mikael Akerfeldt did the screaming vocals on the Sounds of Decay EP and Brave Murder Day by Katatonia were outstanding.
Gryff:
So I come waltzing into this thread ready to expound the virtues of Emmylou Harris as a backing singer, noting how she is (and has been for thirty or so years) the very best in the world at accompanying other singers, providing examples of where she has exponentially improved other people's songs through her mere prescence, and noting how, even as she nears 60 years of age, she is also quite beautiful.
Then you guys go and do all of that stuff already. Well fuck you guys.
