It's just amazing that he kept the part that became the outro to Floods in the vault for 8 years and saved it for the perfect song, perfect moment to put it in. Crazy. After saving it all of that time and putting it in Floods, it turned out to be one of the most heartfelt and amazing solos/outros ever created (imo).
That's Darrell, My old friend from high school, who was a great motivation. I'll never forget the times I actually hung out at their pad, In Arlington/Pantego and even before they were signed and famous they were already pretty much rock stars to all the folks hangin around at the time cuz we all knew they were going make it big. Darrell was winning guirar contest all over the place.
because he plays with emotion witch no other guitar player today has the guitar was his life and love, witch no other guitar player today is like there is so many reasons why dime is the greatest and why he will always be the greatest
When I saw this on Dimevision, once again, a few months back it single handedly inspired me to play guitar. I was in a guitar slump and played maybe....i don't know, a half hour a week, excluding lessons. And now I'm averaging 6+hours weekly! I loved his playing and may god rest his soul! RIP Dime!
He was an extremely gifted musician........he was by far the biggest influence in my playing style. He made me a much better guitarist throughout my teens. RIP Dime......
ive just turned 15 this month and ive just started spicin up my playing wid fast licks like shit and ive impressed some good guitar players around here i hope i can come close to dimebag standards later on R.I.P. dimebag wish me luck dude
He plays a similar version to the shred lines at the start and every time the crowd would react in awe, he was the real deal and stepped into the scene as a God.
I think dimebag was original. I think cliff burton was original. Post-black album.......i was like uhhhhhh.......but i listen to every pantera song. And cannot ever stop. It's weird.
This brings back the memories, amazing! Born to shred. I recognize part of that solo in a later song. I wanted to see them bad in the early days. A boyfriend and I went to a club in Dallas called Matley's, in the 80's. I managed to get in but alas, he was carded and barred entry. His fake id sucked. I had fun though, what can I say? It was Pantera! hehehehe The early gods of metal were indeed bad ass. Dimebag kept it "real"...just as nice in person as the tributes claimed. RIP DIMEBAG
You cant refer to him in past tense. He lives on with every kid who listens to everything he wrote and attempts to be like the great man. his influence is forever.
i agree with you man. Dime is a Metal Legend, and number1ne's opinion is a mere fart in the wind compared to those who think Dime is and will always be a true metal god.
We opened for Pantera back then a few times in a band called Filthy Rich and I remember once at Cardi's Houston waiting for him to do sound check so I could, and after watching him warm up I DID NOT want to do mine, I felt like a creaton next to him, even back then he was special!
Nice find! Thanks for the video. Starting at 2:24 time - that little piece is what Dime ended the song "Floods" with off Pantera's trendkill CD...cool. Rest In Peace, the world misses you.
man wtf! I am 14 years old and I've been playing guitr for 2 years and it is Dimebag who inspired me to start playing.He has always been my bigest inspiration and I believe he has been a really big inspiration to metal generally R.I.P.Dimebag and fuck all these asholes that send idiotic comments about him wtf if you don't like him then why the fuck do you watch his videos??? Am I right?
@metalhedmike awsome i was only like 7 when he died and i didnt no anything about metal then but i wish he was still alive so i could atleast see him live
For those interested. Listen to a Sunday Afternoon in the Park by Van Halen. You may notice a little inspiration for the Floods solo (not the outro as played here)
Definitely one of the best metal guitarists of all time here...his loss was a sad one to the world of music. My musical tastes have swayed away from metal since high school, but I've still got mad respect for Dimebag. I'm a Jerry Garcia man myself these days. :)
jnux, I believe it. Just from watching the Pantera home videos, I can tell that Darrell was a down-to-earth type of a dude with a big heart - in addition to his guitar skills of course. He is missed greatly.
That was definitely a small Dallas Venue - the Basement probably, but could have been Joe's Garage or maybe even Dallas City Limits. I was probably there :)
god that vibrato man - bad guitarists hit the wrong notes. good guitar players hit the right notes. amazing guitar players like Dime make the right notes their bitches!
@Ben0itZ They were friends. In 84 or 85 they came down to TX to hang out with them all. MetallicA wasn't BIG yet so they weren't untouchable yet. There's a pic with DIme with a white 24 fret ML and james with a cherry burst one, that's when they came down.

He's lucky someone didn't steal it after witnessing this then

Darrell was winning guirar contest all over the place.
Apparently he won so many contests that they wouldn't let him compete because he was so good, so they made him a judge instead
because he plays with emotion
witch no other guitar player today has
the guitar was his life and love, witch no other guitar player today is like
there is so many reasons why dime is the greatest and why he will always be the greatest

Can't belive he had Floods for so long...
RIP brother, always in my heart.
He was an extremely gifted musician........he was by far the biggest influence in my playing style. He made me a much better guitarist throughout my teens. RIP Dime......
You can feel the passion in every note, R.I.P. Dime
that riff he starts shredding at 1:22 is amazing.
I learned that part and it sounds just as good in person
ive just turned 15 this month and ive just started spicin up my playing wid fast licks like shit and ive impressed some good guitar players around here i hope i can come close to dimebag standards later on R.I.P. dimebag wish me luck dude
How it turn out??
1:19 shattered
omg, my eyes... I cried at the prototype of Floods ;(
This is my favourite guitar player
R.I.P. Dimebag, you're a great inspiration to many.
I hope I'll shred like you one day
He plays a similar version to the shred lines at the start and every time the crowd would react in awe, he was the real deal and stepped into the scene as a God.
2:01
unbelievable he kept this solo for the floods outro 8 years later
11.
He did on I am the night tour already
i am an old lady now but I still cry when I hear him. RIP
1:02 he hints at the end of shattered!
Good Ear!
I LOVE how pantera LOVES metallica. good bands know other good bands.
I think dimebag was original. I think cliff burton was original. Post-black album.......i was like uhhhhhh.......but i listen to every pantera song. And cannot ever stop. It's weird.
easily one of the top 5 guitarists of ALL time, including guitarists that havnt even been born yet
props dude
Dimebag was and still is such an inspiration to guitar players anywhere.
R.I.P
This brings back the memories, amazing! Born to shred. I recognize part of that solo in a later song.
I wanted to see them bad in the early days. A boyfriend and I went to a club in Dallas called Matley's, in the 80's. I managed to get in but alas, he was carded and barred entry. His fake id sucked.
I had fun though, what can I say? It was Pantera! hehehehe
The early gods of metal were indeed bad ass.
Dimebag kept it "real"...just as nice in person as the tributes claimed.
RIP DIMEBAG
seriously i would love to see them play back then...Pantera ruled in the 80s (when Phil came in that is)...
You cant refer to him in past tense. He lives on with every kid who listens to everything he wrote and attempts to be like the great man. his influence is forever.
jesus christ i got insane goosebumps from watching this. R.I.P Dimebag ♥
this video shows me why dimebag darrell is one of my influences of being one day a great guitar player
R.I.P Dimebag, one of the earths, maybe histories best guitarists ever. Yet again, R.I.P Dimebag Darrell
Damn, he does so many parts of Pantera futur songs : The Sleep, Domination, Floods
Dimebag forever.
Amen, Your Memories Remain.
Your Music Lives On Always And Forever.
:] Rest In Peace.
he was good back then...damn this man was and still is incredible...
RIP...
he was a god !!! and he will forever ,,,R.i.p.
What a great solo! I wish he would be still alive. RIP dime.
Lol battery by metallica towards the end.
Lol ur right
i was 3 yrs old god i wish i was there
i agree with you man.
Dime is a Metal Legend, and number1ne's opinion is a mere fart in the wind compared to those who think Dime is and will always be a true metal god.
2:03 The outro from Floods
3:14 Battery - Metallica
the Lion of the guitar........great
amazing.
that solo was his birthright
the outro of floods - dimebags greatest solo
god damn this tripped me out hella
RIP DIME
Holy shit. I did not expect him to start playing "battery". I guess its because its such a fast, heavy riff and thats what he does:)
hopefully hes still in that time machine ..... :-/ RIP DIME
We opened for Pantera back then a few times in a band called Filthy Rich and I remember once at Cardi's Houston waiting for him to do sound check so I could, and after watching him warm up I DID NOT want to do mine, I felt like a creaton next to him, even back then he was special!
I remember when Claudio from Coheed had hair like this...always reminded me of Dime.
duuuddee thats fuckin awesome that he created floods that long ago and re-did it on the great southern trendkill :D
@RRMI6ironmaiden today i played all the songs i know from Pantera in his honour and they came out great, RIP Dimebag.
The Sleep part of the solo in the intro :-)
Nice find! Thanks for the video.
Starting at 2:24 time - that little piece is what Dime ended the song "Floods" with off Pantera's trendkill CD...cool.
Rest In Peace, the world misses you.
i love hearing floods before it was floods, thats nice. i miss him sooo much
there's at least 2 licks he used in later songs
from 0:44 to 1:05 in his solo on damageplan tour
and at 2:00 of course
yep, it shows the amount of work he could put in his songs
***** I don't think it's the sleep solo. Sounds very unfamiliar and it's most likely unused solo, or "prototype" version of the sleep solo.
Always a crowd pleaser always will be missed!!!!
i love yaa dimebag...
por simpre dimebag!!!! Desde Argentina descansa en paz
I LOVE the Floods solo too! R.I.P. Dime.
Dimebag was an amazing guitarist, and a tragic loss. RIP Dime.
So damn cool !!!
It's Hard to say.
I'll love you Always.
R.I.P
Dimebag Darrell
21 people thought the dislike was the DOWNLOAD button.
master of the instrument!!!!!!!!!! Dime foreva!!!
1:22-1:55 insanity!!!!! My god man!
Dude, your right. Thats fuckin cool as hell.
Rip Dime
thats my hero!!
Biggest influence on guitarists around the world.
man wtf!
I am 14 years old and I've been playing guitr for 2 years and it is Dimebag who inspired me to start playing.He has always been my bigest inspiration and I believe he has been a really big inspiration to metal generally
R.I.P.Dimebag
and fuck all these asholes that send idiotic comments about him
wtf if you don't like him then why the fuck do you watch his videos???
Am I right?
Unique. You just can't go wrong with dimebag.
outro licks from shattered at the start! love it!
@metalhedmike awsome i was only like 7 when he died and i didnt no anything about metal then but i wish he was still alive so i could atleast see him live
The Legend RIP - He starts playing a Vinne Moore song in the final bit of this solo! Nice! SHRED, amen!
For those interested. Listen to a Sunday Afternoon in the Park by Van Halen. You may notice a little inspiration for the Floods solo (not the outro as played here)
Definitely one of the best metal guitarists of all time here...his loss was a sad one to the world of music. My musical tastes have swayed away from metal since high school, but I've still got mad respect for Dimebag. I'm a Jerry Garcia man myself these days. :)
starting at 1:22 til 1:42... I'd love to know what he's playing, but his hair got in the way sadly lol
AMAZING
best guitar, best guitarist= LEGEND!!!!!!! awesome man
floods outro was playing here what fucking awesome dime the best
jnux,
I believe it. Just from watching the Pantera home videos, I can tell that Darrell was a down-to-earth type of a dude with a big heart - in addition to his guitar skills of course. He is missed greatly.
Dimebag Darrell, Zakk Wylde, Slash, Angus Young, Jimi Hendrix, Steve Ray vaughn, Tony iomi,Rand Rhodes best guitar players whoever lived Rock On!!
Floods....awesome haha i was jus tryna to this while playin madden and righr when i heard it i was like a demo of floods! Awesome! Rip brother dime
great tone! love it!
Yeah, definetly gotta agree... There can be no fucking Pantera without Dimebag Darrell! RIP
That was definitely a small Dallas Venue - the Basement probably, but could have been Joe's Garage or maybe even Dallas City Limits. I was probably there :)
love the hair
i actually got chills when they played that lil piece of battery
Awesome solo!
god that vibrato man - bad guitarists hit the wrong notes. good guitar players hit the right notes. amazing guitar players like Dime make the right notes their bitches!

I love the Battery at the end. lol.
OMG!! the outro for flood o my!!! so fuckin beautiful :(

@ShittakeBukakke yes! it's the outro of "floods"! solo of 1988... for the album of 1996! young dime, young genius.
E um guitarrista , fora do normal . Incrível ...

Loving the beard!

at the 2:03 mark dime plays the song floods outro, in 1988, over a decade bfore the album comes out.
Hmm I wonder if Phil was with the band at this point in time.
Anyway, great Dimebag video! I love old videos of the greats!
BATTERY!!!! classic
R.I.P Dimebag

00:25 the sleep
