Editorial Review: It's a bit surprising that Pantera waited until 1997 to release a live album, considering how brutal and powerful the band had been in concert. At an average Pantera show, it would not be unusual to see security evicting overzealous fans, and club bathrooms filled with bloody wads of paper towels from mosh pit injuries. Official Live 101 Proof captures the group in its natural, violent element, combining abrupt, barbed riffs with pulse-pounding beats and furious vocals. The record spans Pantera's career, from the classic guitar lick of "Cowboys from Hell" to the fuzzbomb fury of "Suicide Note Pt. 2" (from album The Great Southern Trendkill). As an encore, the band offers album buyers two new studio tracks, the bluesy bonecrusher "Where You Come From" and the grinding piledriver "I Can't Hide." As the fortress of alternative rock continues to crumble, Pantera stomp vindictively through the rubble, their metallic legacy intact. --Jon Wiederhorn

Rating: - pantera cd
the cd i ordered arrive before the time that was set and in perfect condition
Rating: - Bittersweet
This album brings back a lot of nostalgia for the early nineties when I listened to Pantera pretty much every day. I just put this disk back on rotation, and over a decade later I still can't believe how good this band was. There will never be another Pantera, and no one today even comes close in my humble opinion.
I'd have to agree with the majority of reviewers for this disk who have commented on the high quality of the live recordings. Dimebag and Vinnie Paul sound extremely tight ... Read More
Rating: - Great Live Album
This album rocks! It grabs you by the throat from the opening song and does not let go till it ends! The playing is brutal and spot on. Alselmo sounds great. This is a must have for Pantera fans. A truly great live album!!
Rating: - Great album by one metal`s greatest bands!
I found this album in 1999 at my local recordshop on the "sale wall", it was cheap, real cheap and I remember that I had heard the Cowboys from hell riff a couple of year before and loved it... I bought the album and goddamn I would never be the same.. From Phil`s first grunt on new level i was hooked.. The live version of new level and Walk is far better than the studioversions, and so is the case of the other songs... This livealbum really shows how fu..ing good this band was, and how heavy they ... Read More
Rating: - Pantera Live CD
The CD has a very good list of songs from Pantera's repertoire. However the recording quality leaves something to be desired. I've purchased live albums from other bands that sounded almost as good as the original recordings. I've only listened to the CD in my car stereo, but had to do adjustments on the Bass, Treble and Mid-range to get a decent sound.
