* ''Music/RawPower'' (1973) by Music/TheStooges: Was brought in to do last-minute mixing work after the original mix proved to be too poor-quality to release; is credited alongside Music/IggyPop as a co-producer as a result.
* ''Music/{{Transformer}}'' (1972) by Music/LouReed: Co-produced and performed backing vocals alongside Mick Ronson.
* ''Music/TheIdiot'' (1977) by Music/IggyPop: The first of three Pop albums that Bowie co-wrote and produced, also adding musical instrumentations and backing vocals. Is generally seen as a prelude to the Berlin Trilogy, given the similarity in production style, Bowie's heavy involvement that ended up shaping it into one of his albums in all but name, and the fact that the opening track, "Sister Midnight", was written into Bowie's own "Red Money" on ''Lodger'' in 1979.
* ''Music/LustForLife'' (1977) by Music/IggyPop: The second of three Pop albums that Bowie produced and co-wrote, and sang backing vocals on, and the last that he added instrumentation to (Bowie didn't play any of the instruments on ''Blah-Blah-Blah''). Bowie would later cover "Neighborhood Threat" and "Tonight" on ''Tonight'' in 1984.
