Zakk Wylde on avoin uuden Pantera-musiikin äänittämiselle Dimebagin riffi-ideoiden pohjalta
Zakk Wylde kertoi tuoreessa Guitar Interactiven haastattelussa jälleen mahdollisuudesta, että uudelleen muodostettu Pantera, jossa ovat mukana elossa olevat jäsenet Phil Anselmo, Rex Brown, sekä Wylde ja Charlie Benante, voisi tehdä uutta musiikkia.
Wylde ei poissulkisi mahdollisuutta uuden Pantera-musiikin äänittämiselle Dimebagin riffi-ideoiden pohjalta:
”Well, the fellows were talking about doing something, and Rita [Haney, longtime girlfriend of late Dimebag Darrell Abbott] has tons of cassette recordings of Dime writing riffs and stuff like that. So, I guess if it would be like something like, let’s say if it’s Eric Clapton playing with [JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE drummer] Mitch and [bassist] Noel, ’cause if Eric went out and did what we’re doing right now, did a Jimi Hendrix celebration, and Mitch and Noel asked Eric Clapton to come out ’cause he was buddies with Jimi and they were just, like, ’Would you go out and sing and play Jimi’s stuff?’ And Eric does it, and then after that, it’s just, like, ’We’ve got these recordings Jimi never finished, a song called ’Purple Haze’ and a song called ’The Wind Cries Mary’ and this song called ’Little Wing’ or whatever, and we’ll properly record ’em, because if they were just Jimi just jamming on a tape recorder, just him playing ’em. If they were, obviously, Dime’s original riffs and ideas, yeah, of course. But PANTERA is those four guys. You’re gonna call it the Jimi Hendrix band and you’ve got Eric playing and singing. It’s just Mitch and Noel. If it’s Jimi’s original ideas, and they’re just gonna properly record ’em, take it from the little tape recorder from a cassette, yeah, that would be cool. ’Cause if it was something Dime wrote and him and Vinnie were working on or whatever…”
