[quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='55947' date='Sep 5 2007, 02:10 PM']McVie and Fleetwood. Not the best musicians in the world, but they were so tight you wouldn't be able to get a cigarette paper between them.

I guess that comes from 40 years of playing in the same band.

I wish.......[/quote]


+1 for McVie and Fleetwood

I totally agree with all of the following:

John Bonham / John Paul Jones
George Porter Junior & Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste
Tim Commerford & Brad Wilk
Chuck Rainey/Bernard "Pretty Boy" Purdie
Paul Jackson and Mike Clark
Benny Benjamin and James Jamerson
David Garibaldi & Rocco Prestia
Larry Graham & Greg Errico
Flea & Chad Smith

50% of one to add: Jaco & Peter Erskine (Invitation)
A rather leftfield one: Dimebag Darrell (yes, he was a guitarist) & Vinnie Paul
Geezer Butler & Bill Ward
Bernard Odum & Clyde Stubblefield
Bootsy Collins & Jabo Starks

And one that I cannot believe has been missed - Gentlemen, you should be ashamed!

The Legendary Barrett Brothers
