The Watts/Wyman and Starr/ McCartney rythmn section duos are probably the most dynamic, ahead of their time, sycronized, "never become bigger that the music" combo in rock & roll history. I didn't say the best musicians at their instuments (although McCartney is probably the most under-appreciated bassist as well as best all around musicians ever), I said best fit for their band's music no matter which way the band's music turned. Both drummers, especially, projected an understated drive that was a big part of why the music worked so well on so many levels. Excuse me but I've been a big fane of both bands since the Beatles played on my 12th birthday, Sunday, Feb. 9, 1964
Catch'em up, ThomCat
