These are some of my favorite "weaving" duos:

1. Keith Richards/Ronnie Wood
2. Angus/Malcolm Young
3. Joe Perry/Brad Whitford
4. Duane Allman/Dickie Betts
5. Steve Hunter/Dick Wagner

Keith Richards / Mick Taylor

Peter Green and Danny Kirwan,
Keith Richards and Brian Jones
Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck
John Lennon and George Harrison

Love the whole idea of the guitar team; as the eye of a band's sound. There are so many good ones, that delivered in different ways. At times the individual guitarrists aren't even that god, but together they produced.

Fred Sonic Smith/Wayne Kramer - MC5
Michael Bruce/Glenn Buxton - former Alice Cooper Band
Sterling Morrison/Lou Reed - Velvet Underground
Sputnik Spooner/Roger Steen - Tubes
Mick Jones/Joe Strummer - Clash
Lenny Kaye/Ivan Kral - Patti Smith Group
Richard Lloyd/Tom Verlaine - Television
Lee Ranaldo/Thurston Moore - Sonic Youth
James Iha/Billy Corgan - Smashing Pumpkins
Andrew Innes/Robert Throb Young - Primal Scream
Nick Valensi/Albert Hammond Jr - Strokes
Rich Robinson/Marc Ford - Black Crowes (2nd version)
Slash/Izzy Stradlin - Guns 'N Roses
Stone Gossard/Mike McCready - Pearl Jam
Johnny Thunders/Syl Sylvain - New York Dolls
Eric Clapton/Duane Allman - Derek & Dominoes

If ya step way way back into the old world you'll

Tommy Johnson/Charlie McCoy - Big Road Blues...Cool Drink Of Water Blues - Memphis 1928
Frank Stokes/Dan Sane - Take Me Back...How Long - Memphis 1928
Garfield Akers/Joe Callicott - Cottofield Blues - Memphis 1929
Kid Bailey/unknown 2nd guitar - Rowdy Blues - Memphis 1929
Memphis Minnie/Kansas Joe McCoy - Going Back To Texas...When The Levee Breaks - New York 1929



Frank Stokes.........Dan Sane..................Tommy Johnson ......................Kansas Joe ..... Memphis Minnie



ROCKMAN

Lots of great ones mentioned. Also:

Michael Bruce/ Glen Buxton - original Alice Cooper band
Glenn Tipton/ KK Downing - Judas Priest
Dave Murray/ Adrian Smith - Iron Maiden
Frehley/ Stanley - KISS
Rudolph Schenker/ Mattias Jabs - Scorpions
all the guitarists that played in Thin Lizzy

Last but not least: Nigel Tufnel and David St. Hubbins of Spinal Tap

Beside of various Stones combinations I go for

Steve Hunter - Dick Wagner

Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck

Are you thinking of their short-lived partnership in The Yardbirds? I can envisage that lineup being a favourite, but there just isn't enough music from that period out there.

Happenings Ten Years Time Ago, Pysco Daisies, Stroll On (from the film, Blow Up) and the Beck solo number - Beck's Bolero. Only two of them feature Page on the 6-string.

They were awsome live apparently. According to reports, they tried to get a stereo lead-guitar effect going, though the competivness eventually got to Beck a little.

Any of several tandems in the Allman Brothers Band...

Duane Allman/Dickey Betts (1969-71)
Dickey Betts/Warren Haynes (1989-97)
Dickey Betts/Jack Pearson (1997-99)
Warren Haynes/Derek Trucks (2001-present)

YES!!! Betts and Haynes!!!!! My favorite era for ABB!!

John mcLaughlin/Allan Holdsworth, on feeling,improvisation,technic&composition
Steve Hunter/David Wagner, warm and melodic playing
MickTaylor &Jeff Beck Playing both sensitive yet "sleazy"
Paco deLucia&Assad Brothers:to the bone.

I see Hunter/ Wagner mentioned several times. Apart from playing with Alice Cooper, did they play together for other projects?

Lou Reed "Rock&Roll animal is the best example to me.

Garcia/Weir--Grateful Dead
Jimmy Page/Jimmy Page
David Byrne/Jerry Harrison
Lennon/Harrison
John Frusciante-Red Hot Chili Peppers
Taylor/Richards
Curtis Mayfield/open F-sharp tuning — F#, A#, C#, F#, A#, F#

Scott Gorham & Brian Robertson.

I realize that the Beck/Page duo was a short lived one but I love their interplay on the few recordings they did together. Psycho Daisies was a particular favorite. I had heard that they were 'talking of doing an album together a few years back but nothing seems to have come of it.

LONESOME DAVE AND ROD PRICE FROM FOGHAT!! ROCK N ROLL OUTLAWS WITH A SIX STRING GUN.

Excellent list.

* Young/Young the best two guitar attack ever.

* Weir/Garcia A lot respect here. Two different sounds. Weir amazing Rythm Player.

* Taylor/Richards Incredible chemistry.

* Petty/Campbell Very underated guitar team.

* Lennon/Harrison Too bad I didn't get to listen these two in a good hall, with a good PA.

* Allman Bros guitar section.

* Hammett/Hetsfield yes they are good.

* Strummer/Jones rough on the edges, powerful stuff.

* Malkmus/Kannberg From the band Pavement - one the most underrated bands ever -

Honarable mentions.

* Stradlin/Slash - only if Slash could have played a bit lower we could have listened Stradlin's playing, specially since he was the main songwriter.

* Perry/Whitford - I don't know. Maybe.

* Honeyman-Scott/Hynde - I hear a good chemistry here..don't agree?

Fernando Von Arb and Mark Kohler of Krokus have always been two of my favorites.

Also Haynes and Trucks have done a mighty fine job considereing the shoes they had to fill.

Keith and Ron. By far the best IMHO.
Don't know about 2nd best though. Maybe Elvis with Scotty Moore ('68 comeback especially - Sterling).

JumpingKentFlash

Beside the obvious already mentioned (The Stones' collaborations, Young & Young etc.) I think Chris Robinson & Marc Ford are worth mentioning, and also Nils Lofgren & Steve Van Zandt.

[www.reverbnation.com]

Keith Richards / Mick Taylor
Steve Hunter / Dick Wagner
Michael Bruce / Glenn Buxton
John McLaughlin / Carlos Santana
Chuck Berry / Bo Diddley
Eddie Hazel / Gary Schider

No particular order and just the first that came to mind.

CBII

Hall and Oates!!

There's also a Great Shakes commercial to the tune of Over Under Sideways Down
that features both Beck and Page (only about 30-40 seconds long).
