[edit] Album information

The first fourteen tracks are live recordings of songs from previously released studio albums (starting with Cowboys from Hell); the last two songs ("Where You Come From" and "I Can't Hide") are studio recordings which were first introduced on this album. Official Live: 101 Proof reached #15 on the Billboard Top 200 charts.

The track "Dom/Hollow" is an amalgamation of parts of "Domination" (originally from Cowboys) and "Hollow" (originally from Vulgar Display of Power). The band played "Domination" leading into "Hollow" virtually every time they played either song live.

The track "Hostile" is simply a live version of "Fucking Hostile" (from Vulgar Display) with a shortened title.

The album cover is meant to look like a whiskey bottle label with 101% Proof referring to alcohol content and No 5 referring to the brand (Like Jack Daniels Old No 7 brand) and the fact that this is their 5th release (Not counting the four earlier albums)
