Of the music that I loved growing up, it all started with the heaviness of Butler and Ward.

same here....great memories of that music being on around the house
 
Stanley Clarke/Gerry Brown
Garry Grainger/Dennis Chambers
Rael Wesley Grant/Kenwood Dennard
Bobby Watson/John Robinson
Patrick O’Hearn/Terry Bozzio

I’ll chime in with more as they come to mind.
 
Anthony Jackson/Steve Gadd
 
2 pretty recent bands but Joe Dart/Jack Stratton/Theo Katzman from Vulfpeck have been tight

also Sonny T/Petar Janic on the new Cory Wong albums have been really something else
 
Anything with Nathan East on bass.......with any number of drummers Ferrone, Mason etc.

Chris Layton/Tommy Shannon from Double Trouble (SRV) also held down a mean foundation

Clearly some awesome combos have been mentioned above as well.
 
Oh, many good ones have already been mentioned. Here are another combos from me:

Robert Trujillo + Lars Ulrich from Metallica

Mark O'Toole + Peter Gill from FGTH.

Many good examples above but you forgot
Sean Reinert and Sean Malone, from the bands Cynic and Gordian Knot.
Both died in 2020.

And how about Vinnie and Arthur Barrow, from the Zappa days.

Jimmy Johnson with Husband or Wackerman, from the Holdsworth band.
 
lots of great combos...and I am learning of new ones too...keep 'em coming
 
Gregg Bissonette and Matt Bissonette

Peace and goodwill.
