Copied from the article:
8. Ted Templeman/Van Halen
Maybe it’s a coincidence that Ted Templeman produced all of pop-metal masters Van Halen’s best records. And maybe it’s not. Yes, their work together happened to fall during David Lee Roth’s hairy-chested, six-LP original run, which VH aficionados generally regard as vastly superior to the slicker Van Hagar era. And Eddie Van Halen’s genius guitar playing could turn any band, even if they were otherwise comprised entirely of sock puppets, into Rock and Roll Hall of Famers. Still, with Templeman behind the board, Van Halen morphed from Pasadena’s raddest keg-party cover band to an arena-gobbling monster. That’s undeniable.

Terry Brown and Rush from 'Fly By Night' to 'Signals' 9 albums in 7 years which all these years later were still made so well they still sound completely fine.
Not many albums from that era 35-40 years ago you can say that about....

A more recent pairing that easily belongs in the top 20 is Kevin Shirley and Black Country Communion.

Any list of this type which does not have The Rolling Stones & Jimmy Miller in the top 5 isn't worth the time it took to read it.

Admittedly I'm biased, but I would put them at #2. Definitely should be in the top 5.

Titney Spears? Janet Jackson?? Geezus........
