The winner and still champion!  I remember Milt Hinton, Osie Johnson and Barry Galbraith being the New York go-to rhythm section.  (Often with Hank Jones?)

I realized I never posted this one. Blue Note's go to rhythm section for grittier hard bop records.

These are great. Along with Drake / Parker, who you mention up-thread, these cover half my record collection. 

Did Holland / Altschul play with others other than Braxton?

Sam Rivers most famously

Total brain slip on my part.

Maybe obscure and they also performed as a trio, but any recording including 2 or more from (Masabumi Kikuchi piano, Masahiko Togashi drums/percussion, Gary Peacock bass) is worth hearing IMO.

Agreed ....

I'd add Hiroshi Murakami to that group, he often replaced or augmented Togashi... Also, Don Patterson + Billy James

Strongly agree.

After leaving the Ramsey Lewis Trio, drummer Isaac "Redd" Holt and bassist Eldee Young formed the Young-Holt Trio in 1966 with pianist Don Walker.  

Later, they replaced Walker with Ken Chaney and changed their name to Young-Holt Unlimited.
