This is an update of an earlier topic - I added Lester Bowie, Phillip Wilson, Olu Dara and Max+Dizzy, the latter can be seen on the clip below, taken from the same concert as on the CD.There are obviously much less trumpet-drums duo albums than sax-drums duos, and comparable in that respect to the trio format. I put the Chicago Underground Duo's CDs between brackets because they also use vibes and electronics once in a while.

Don't know if you're looking for more examples, but if you are...
Another example is Natsuki Tamura with Aaron Alexander and Jim Black, White & Blue. Black and Alexander play on different tracks, so it is a duet and not a trio.
Also if I remember correctly Ralph Alessi & Shane Endesley "Vice & Virtue" is mostly trumpet/drums; there's a guest trombone on one track, and Endesley plays trumpet himself also. It's been a while since I've heard this, but I think it was at least as much trumpet-drums as the Cherry/Blackwell and Dixon/Oxley.
Herb Robertson/Phil Haynes "Ritual" is one I've never heard.
