Butch Trucks and Jaimoe (the Allman Brothers Band)
A two for one deal! Some might say this is cheating because there are two drummers in this band, but it would make more sense to do this than splitting them. Butch Trucks and Johanny “Jamioe” Johanson were inseparable since they met at the conception of the Allman Brothers Band. They bounce off of one another, one plays polyrhythms, and the other stays in the pocket, and they switch off. Few tandem drummers have been able to trust one another at such a high level, for that they deserve this ranking.
