yep - they do lay down the foundation - they together just sound great -
I remember Lindsey saying once that Mick plays slightly behind the beat (which he complimented with admiting that he plays slightly ahead of the beat) - this confused me. Being the drummer Mick IS the beat - no? In my musical experience the rythm section is what you follow - they lay down the beat - the tempo - the basic foundation of a song....
