Beard Liberation Front pays tribute to ‘iconic’ Dusty Hill of ZZ Top
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has paid tribute to Dusty Hill (1949-2021) who has died after a hip injury
Hill was bassist for ZZ Top, and one of the most iconic beard wearers of the post-1945 era.
The campaigners say that when people thought of impressive facial hair ZZ Top and Dusty Hill often featured despite the fact that until recent times band member Frank Beard did not have facial hair.
Dusty Hill will now be inducted posthumously into the Beard Hall of Fame.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Dusty Hill did a lot for the positive image of the hirsute and he will be remembered both for his music and his iconic beard.
