Know Your Enemy-Rage Against the Machine (Maynard James Keenan of TOOL)

Fire Lake-Bob Seger (Glenn Frey/Don Henley/Timothy B Schmidt all of the Eagles)

Right Turn-Alice in Chains (Chris Cornell of Soundgarden/Mark Arm of Mudhoney)

Money for Nothing-Dire Straits (Sting of The Police)

Gimme Shelter-Rolling Stones (Merry Clayton. Not a star but sang backup on many songs of the 60’s)

Luckenbach, Texas-Waylon Jennings (Willie Nelson)

Daddy Sang Bass-Johnny Cash (Don Reid & Lew Dewitt of The Statler Brothers/Jan Howard)

Right Turn might be a bit of a stretch for the criteria as Layne, Chris, and Mark split the verses up evenly, making Chris/Marks appearances less like a cameo and more of song sang by 3 guys. “Brother” and “Am I Inside” off the same EP feature Ann Wilson of Heart, which probably meets the criteria better.

It certainly doesn't ruin the album, but "Swing On This" at the end of Jar of Flies by Alice In Chains just doesn't belong there. Not at all. And it's enough to move that album out of contention for the best album of all time for me. Otherwise, the mood established by the rest of the album is a sheer masterpiece. But then that song comes along and shifts the whole mood. It's rough.
