R&P: Who were/are the best vocalist/guitarist combos ever?

Question

Another question brought on by YouTube.  I was watching a clip from a Journey concert, and it got me thinking.  Which bands had the best pairings of vocalist and guitarists.

If people still don't understand, here are a few examples I came up with, you can use them and expand or add your own if you like, I'm just curious.

Freddie Mercury/Brian May
Robert Plant/Jimmy Page
Roger Daltry/Pete Townshend
Steve Perry/Neal Schon

MQ: Favorite Bob Seger song?
BQ: If you could, right this second, would you drop everything you had going on in life just to be with a special someone?
