[Tom Howland]

Bruce & Baker.

[shawshank72]

[rtav]

ALL time: Geddy and Neil

Taking it up a few notches:
Colaiuta/Barrow (come on...!)
Portnoy/Sheehan (esp the Winery Dogs stuff)
Morgenstein/LaRue

 

[GwenOnBass]

Art Tatum was his own rhythm section. A veritable demiurge of Time.

 

[REV]

Carl Radle and Jim Keltner

 

[Greyplaysmusic]

Commerford and Wilk

 

[ultra60]

Simmons/Criss

 

[hsech]

It was the "Flames" when James Brown was still alive. First runner up was the "Wrecking Crew".

 

[39-Bassist]

Lynott + Downey = tops on my list....

 

[Pharsalien]

Paul Rudd, and Jason Segal hands down

 

[MCF]

Since I don't see them on the list, I'll add Tallent and Mighty Max Weinberg. Adter 40 years together, they still rock three plus hour shows. And Roy Bittan is hammering his piano along with them every step of the way.

 

[MJ_Sotti]

It depends on which drummer I'm playing that night.

not if it was my drummer

 

[Laklandfan]

not if it was my drummer

Ouch.

 

[MJ_Sotti]

Ouch.

yep. the north side one, not the other bands.

 

[ThuzzleFump]

View attachment 899029 These guys are so good together, the guitarist named the band after them.

Underappreciated brilliance.

 

[Wolfenstein666]

Ged and Neil for sure. Geezer and Ward are up there too. Also, the bassist and drummer (don't recall their names) for the Jimi Hendrix experience. Brutally underrated.
