From '68 to '72, my favorite rhythm section in rock.

Yeah, pretty much MY main influences from 75-84.

My other favorites were Bill Bruford/John Wetton (King Crimson) and later, Bruford/Tony Levin (80's period King Crimson, plus Neil Peart/Geddy Lee (RUSH).

For jazz I would have to say Shelley Manne, tony williams on drums, Ray Brown, Scott LaFaro on acoustic bass, Jaco, Jeff Berlin, on electric bass.

I could list more, though there are a LOT of unsung sidemen I really like. On bass for example, Leland Sklar.
