    Are there any photos of an older Jerry Garcia without a beard? I know when the Dead first started he was cleanshaven but are there any pix from the 70s, 80s, 90s with either just a mustache or goatee or cleanshaven?

    He shaved his beard around November 73 but grew it back by October 74. I believe he was never without the beard after that.

    It looked like the beard and the heavier weight went together.

    I like the early Jerry without the beard, but I also prefer my John Oats with a mustache. :)

    He had a big scar on his chin from an automobile accident in his youth, which may account for the beard.

    Possibly part of the reason, however I read that it's likely due to poor facial skin complexion.

    Further proof that facial hair is ugly and adds nothing but age to a person.

    I have facial hair, I'll bet I'm better looking that you are. :)

    Seeing pictures of Jerry without his beard is like seeing pictures of the Beatles bald. :eek:

    He needed the beard. Without it, he looks like some kinda hippie Paul Simon.

    I always thought full-bearded Jerry had a kind of beatific look about him.
