Clap excellent, though not exactly prog. Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespear are another smoking hot rhythm duo.

Of course, my favorite is Peart/Lee. 2nd place goes to Vander/Top or Vander/Paganotti and 3rd to Bruford and Squire. There are so many good ones!

Dave Hope and Phil Ehart have always been a favorite of mine.

Salazar and Reingold really compliment each other beautifully on the latest Tangent, however. I noticed that right off the bat.

Takes two to prog-tango , you are no slouch by any stretch (plus a classy gentleman) and a good Vosne Romanee or a Pommard would not be a bad choice either ! A ta Sante! What a duo though, eh? Clap

Non mon ami, Wetton/Bruford is a seperate entity altogether that will probably never be matched! No one mentioned it because its obvious (Lee-Peart) . But the KC boys on some nights the energy buzz was "blah" , on others so-so but when they were on, WHOOOOOOOOO! WHEEEEEEEE! The 4CD box you mention is proof positive. Monstrous stuff!
 
Always good to dialog with a fine ''connoisseur;; of exquisite tasteLOL...let me pour a glass of Pomerol now 1 listening to FRACTURE!

Yay, nobody's said it yet (edit: nevermind.....)

Neil Peart/ Geddy Lee, the first duo that popped into my mind

currently listening to the Trio of Doom...... so I'll also mention Jaco Pastorius and Tony Williams, they're just sick

Wrong in my eyes



People do appreciate Genesis around here, but sometimes it feels weird to type Phil Collins without having multiple insults come at the end of it.

Bruford and Squire are another killer duo, a couple of the best in prog history, but of course!

The Tool boys are damn good as well (Danny Carey/Justin Chancellor)

There's many others that have caught my ear recently as well. Gong, Soft Machine (anything Canterbury it seems) and a lot of heavy prog uses the rhythm well also like Tiles. OH! A band who I'm not sure anyone else will mention who is also really good at this kind of thing is Anti-Depressive Delivery.

And of course Rush is easily my favorite bass/drum duo. You can't beat Geddy and Neil. (Trying to keep my Rush-talk to a minimum) WinkLOL




I prefer Collins and Rutherford individually to Peart and Lee.

Am I very wrong?

/why does noone appreciate Genesis that much around here? Meh.
