Ok, ok...let's not get all anal about how a rhythm section is defined, but curious to know other readers thoughts on which drummer and bassist lock in like you wouldn't believe.
I say you can't look much further than Tomas Haake and Dick Lovgren. Tighter than a gnats chuff. |

Can we get all anal about how "tight" is defined? |

Can't go wrong with TOP either.
There was a guy named James Brown who had a band that was somewhat in the pocket..

| | | | Don't know why, but when i think about THE rythm section the first names that pop in my head are Phil Rudd and Cliff Williams. |

| | | | Although 99% of you Victor Wooden fans are going to disagree with me. I would have to say The Ramones especially later on because they all played RHYTHM. |

...part of the "tightness" equation/factor for me means both players are able to go 'outside' what the other is laying down; the other player hears & knows that...which may mean the kick & bass are not locked in the traditional sense.
