Second best rythm section?

[rm2551]

Behind Bonzo and JPJ sits which legendary rythm section?

I nominate who ever this is. Anyone know? Especially from around 1:38 on, but leading into that.

Depends on what type of music you like but here are a few good ones.

Bootsy  Collins and John Stark

Robert "Kool" Bell (bass) and  George Brown (drums)

 

[IpMan]

Kenny Aronoff & Toby Myers from John Mellencamp's band are criminally underrated, a truly great duo. Of course there is Lee & Peart, and one of the best, most swinging was Black & Fontana who backed Elvis. Flea & Smith and of course Collins & Brailey from P-Funk.

Edit: How can I forget Rainey & Purdie from Steely Dan

[Walter]

Obviously these two are upper tier:

Jerry Jemmott on bass. Roger Hawkins on drums. Not bad.

But I would put Motown's Funk Brothers above them. James Jamerson on bass, Benny Benjamin on drums.

Stax also had a crack rhythm section...Donald "Duck" Dunn on bass, Al Jackson, Jr. on drums.

I feel Black Sabbath’s rhythm section is left out here. Watch Snowblind live and just see the pure raw connection between Geezer Butler and Bill ward, their absolute animals when they perform

^not sure what happened, but meant to quote this particular piece.

 

oops.....

Yeah, Rush, for sure.

Deacon and Taylor of Queen are terminally underrated...

Baker and Bruce were pretty damn good too.

Always love the Allman Brothers with original bass player Barry Oakley

[Stryder1978]

My vote goes to Glenn Hughes/Ian Pace:

 

[paul carruthers]

Rush and STP for me--maybe I'll add Dio when I listen to more of his albums....

[Sathington Willoughby]

Sabbath, Primus, Tool

The rhythm section there is Bernard Purdie on drums & Jerry Jemmott on bass.

[Strider]

Frank Beard and Dusty Hill of ZZ Top.

And Ringo and Paul, natch.

If you like them then you should seriously buy Aretha Franklin live at The Fillmore West album, that's where that footage is from (amazing album).

I would also recommend her LP, Young Gifted & Black which features Purdie quite prominently.

Yeah, I am starting to realise just how much is out there to get into. I am from a very "mainstream" background musically. Listening to Alice Cooper has really opened my eyes. There is SOUCH to get into....

I'll keep an eye out for those ones. Cheers.
