Guitar Duos

I'm almost sure we've had this thread before, but I can't seem to find it.

Anyway, I was watching Styx's "Return to Paradise" DVD and I was amazed at how well Tommy Shaw and James Young work together on guitar. They both play off each others rhythm and share leads seamlessly. So, I just got wondering about people's favorite guitar duos. Some of mine;

Tommy Shaw and James Young (Styx)
Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson (Thin Lizzy)
Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt (Status Quo)
Joe Walsh and Don Felder (Eagles)

Dave Mustaine and Chris Poland
Adrian and Dave
Lennon and Harrison
James and Kirk
Glenn and K.K.

The usuals, mostly.

Frankie and Tommy from Tesla
Dan and John from Icon
I prefer the Gorham and Moore version of Lizzy
Erik and Gary version of Tourniquet

and of course the Priest dudes and the second tandem of Maiden...Murray and Smith. Megadeth is kinda close, since more stuff came from Dave and Marty than Dave and Chris, I choose Dave and Marty. That's all Guitar Duos Headbang

I prefer the older stuff but yeah, you could say I'm a fan. Akerfeldt's abitlity to sing and growl so well together is amazing (too much death vocals and my voice is shot).
