Pantera went for months without a front man. How could they do this. Darrell and Vinnies abilitys to play destined them for gratness. They played so many shows throuhg out Texas even while Darrell was only 17. One night a dude called Jerry and offered Pantera a major record deal. He turned it down. He gave them some good advice. Concentrate all there effort to one type of music insead of being so broad and they would succeed. They chose the heave metal music road. Mark Ross from Atco records was going to see another band when he got stuck in Dallas. He went over to see Pantera but after two songs he left. Pantera thought he had left for good he came back 30 minuites later with a contract he was going to sign them right there. Then in 1990 a monster albumk would come from the new found monster band PANTERA. COWBOYS FROM HELL. This will always be one of the greatest and most influential metal albums ever. Darrells skills were now being compared to the metal gods like James Hetfield and Dave Mustaine. Just listen to Cemetary Gates and you will hear a side of metal that was unknown at that time.
