Orbital remaking Satan with Kirk Hammett on guitar:


I'd say it turned out pretty good, though a bit lackluster compared to the original. At least this song got me into Orbital in the first place though!

Before nu metal was a thing, there was this. It's hard to imagine now, but combining rock and hip hop was a novel and exciting thing at the time.

This is a great idea for a thread and I'm sorry I can't come up with a better contribution than when two members of Traffic joined up with Can to produce the Saw Delight album. Not particularly popular afaik, the collab generated the fabulously OTT jam, Animal Waves. Unfortunately, on this clip it's cut in half and has the wrong album cover too - sorry guys, you'll just have to buy the album.

Proper cover with full tune.

A bit of a surprise, but not by much really (at least, for me)
because Rosko and Rebop were pretty much moonlighting guys.

PIL's "Album" had a bunch of musicians some people might be surprised to see there, like Ginger Baker, Steve Vai, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Bernie Worrell, Jonas Hellborg, Tony Williams, Shankar & Malachi Favors.

Is that Dave Thomas from SCTV or Dave Thomas from Wendy's?

Back to the topic: Robert Fripp collaborations can be pretty unexpected. Like the time he collaborated with Peter Gabriel. Or the time he collaborated with Toyah and The Humans. Sounds like a funny thing to say but I didn't know the Humans even existed. Fripp collab'd with Gabriel on a few songs, but the names of the songs I don't remember, but the one I do remember oddly enough I Don't Remember.

Watch "Toyah & The Humans - These Boots Are Made For Walkin’ (Version 1) ft. Robert Fripp" on YouTube


Peter Gabriel unexpectedly collabing with Mr Frippertronics himself, get ready for your socks to be blown off ...
Peter Gabriel I Don't Remember

Why would a collaboration between Fripp and Willcox be unexpected?
By the time of the Humans, they'd worked together and had been
married for over 20 years.

Are you just being Nea again?

Also, that Gabriel track features Dave Gregory on guitar.
