Do give up the day job.

Imagine my joy when listening to Radio 2's re-broadcast of a fabulous Bonnie Raitt live gig/session from Maida Vale to hear the band introduced and find that "...at the back there on drums..." was Rikki Fataar. "The one and only Stig O'Hara!" I thought to myself. Anyone else found folks gratifyilngly cropping up in unexpected places? The last time it happened before then was when the guitarist in our covers band turned up on Mr. Fish's Misplaced Childhood retread album, or whatever it is we've decided to call that thing where you play an album start to finish. The most recent time was when I was reminded that I have a Lonnie Donegan album which features the guitarist from Queen.

the most unexpected place
Robert Fripp on *Is This Your Life? for his missus, and weeping but we don't mention that bit
*might not be correct name of programme and may contain nuts
I've been waiting for an occasion to give up this nugget...
The backing band on My Ding-a-ling contained two of the Average White Band! Oh and on Neil Sedaka's "That's Where The Music Takes Me" he was backed by 10cc.
The Enid on Kim Wilde's first album
(note - this could be a false memory. It's more fun if I don't fact check it via google)
