On Hurdy Gurdy Man, there is some dispute as to who played what instruments. It's not certain, but it looks like Jimmy Page played guitar and John Paul Jones played bass. If so, then half of the future Led Zeppelin played on that song. I think the same is true of Sunshine Superman. However, Allan Holdsworth (a really famous fusion jazz guitar player) might also have played guitar. Supposedly, George Harrison also helped him write the lyrics. So the whole song was a who's-who of rock stars of that era.
