Best guitar tandems
 

A lot of bands especially those in heavy metal have some beautiful duel guitar harmonies, or simply have rhythm players who keep it interesting behind the lead. Who do you think are the best double (or more) guitar tandems?

Blind Guardian- Marcus Siepen, Andre Oblrich
Iron Maiden- Dave Murray, Adrian Smith (**** Jannick Gurrs)
Thin Lizzy- Eric Bell, Gary Moore
Mastodon- Bill Kelliher, Brent Hinds
Iced Earth- Jon Schaffer, Randy Shawver

Iron Maiden: Dave Murray, Adrian Smith, Janick Gers (**** you)
Judas Priest: K.K. Downing, Glenn Tipton
Meshuggah: Fredrik Thordendal, Mårten Hagström
Orange Goblin: Joe Hoare, Pete O'Malley

I've heard a couple of Orange Goblin songs, any CD you'd recommend downloading for someone new to the band?

Does this just have to be metal?

I always thought those two guys from Def Leppard complimented one another. Steve Clark, and I forget the other guy's name. Phil Colin, or Colin something.


A couple that weren't together long, Pat Travers and Pat Thrall on Pat Travers' "Live! Go For What You Know" is a masterpiece of guitar work. They do battle the entire album. It's awesome.

Tom Verlaine/Richard Lloyd (Television)

Of course not, a lot of the people already mentioned are not metal.
