Lee/Peart - just to get the obvious out of the way.

Yup, Headhunters are defo the best in jazz fusion IMO.....

Plenty of others that are equally good in different ways/genres, e.g......
Ron Carter & Philly Joe Jones or Scott LeFaro and Paul Motian in Jazz

Best? Too subjective, but I'll lob in Francis Rocco Prestia and David Garibaldi (Tower of Power).
[/quote]+1 for Prestia and Garibaldi, I'd add Chuck Rainey and Bernard Purdie.

Czukay/Leibezeit - just to get the totally obscure out of the way.

Very definitely....

Worth a mention are Hooky and Stephen Morris from Joy Division....I've met a few drummers who've really rated Morris' playing and agree with them. Maybe not 'best' like Peart/Lee, but still great together.

It's great when you play with a good drummer though isn't it... someone it seems effortless to lock in with, someone who actually listens to what you're playing and adjusts their parts to sync up and you change bits of your basslines to suit their beats. Creating that foundation together...

I've only had the pleasure of playing with a couple of drummers like this, one years ago when I was 19 and the one in my new band... I look forward to every rehearsal :)
