Who has guested with the four-piece Pink Floyd through the years? I'm aware of Snowy White and Roy Harper, but were there any more?

I too am very curious of this. I know Roger Waters and David Gilmour solo have both had some interesting guests. My favourite I would say would be for Roger Waters, although not truly a guest, but Doyal Bramhall II is simply an awesome guitarist IMHO, but he's no Gilmour when it comes to Floyd material. Where are the experts around here when ya need 'em?

Well Dave played with Paul of the Beatles and with Pete Townsenth from The WHo !!

Well...let's see...

Dick Parry has played with them live...a duo called The Blackberrys sang backup for PF on the DSOTM tour (they had previously played with Leon Russel)...Frank Zappa reportedly played live with them on Interstellar Overdrive before Syd left the group...Snowy White (of course)...Andy Bown...Andy Roberts...Peter Wood...Willie Wilson...Jim Haas...Joe Chemay...Stan Farber...John Joyce...Roy Harper...I think that pretty much covers it for concert guests.

Does the Salvation Army band on "Jugband Blues" count?

Not forget probably the most famous and acclaimed guest - Stephane Grappelli who played violin on "Wish You Were Here", but then was edited out by David
