Warren Zevon: Sentimental Hygiene---REM was the backup band, Dylan plays harmonica on it.

Warren Zevon: Transverse City---Jerry Garcia played guitar on 1 song, David Gilmour on another. Neil Young cowrote and sings backup on a song.

Linda Thompson's Fashionably Late comes to mind--Richard and Teddy Thompson are on it, as are Rufus Wainwright, Kate Rusby, and Eliza Carthy. It's like a folkie mafia.

Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, On Tour -- Eric Clapton, George Harrison (uncredited), Dave Mason (uncredited), Bobby Whitlock, Carl Radle, Jim Gordon, Jim Price, Bobby Keys. Actually, many of the DBF records had all-star help, ranging from Booker T. and Isaac Hayes to Duane Allman.

Jefferson Starship, Blows Against the Empire -- Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, Jack Casady, Peter Kaukonen, plus David Crosby, Jerry Garcia, David Freiberg, Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzman, Graham Nash.

Linda Ronstadt, Heart Like A Wheel -- Herb Pedersen, J.D. Souther, Glen Frey, Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmitt, Andrew Gold, Sneaky Pete, Russ Kunkel, Peter Asher (of course), among others, and background singers Maria Muldaur, Wendy Waldman, Cissy Houston, and Emmylou Harris. The Eagles/Souther played on most of her early albums, before any of them were well-known (that doesn't count this one, which was recorded after the Eagles had taken off).
