Album of the Day

"We felt like after 7 years of playing live, that we wanted to put out a record with all our best tunes,” noted Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul of the band's first concert collection, OFFICIAL LIVE: 101 PROOF. The 1997 album, produced by Paul and guitarist Dimebag Darrell, showed the decade's leading heavy metal band was as powerful on stage as in the studio with driving versions of 14 of the quartet's most memorable songs, including “Walk,”  “Cemetery Gates” and “Hostile.” As an added bonus, the set closes with a pair of fiery new studio recordings: “Where You Come From” and “I Can't Hide” If you ever saw a Pantera show, it's not something you're ever likely to forget, and if not, don't miss OFFICIAL LIVE: 101 PROOF.
